CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

  • TARGET AUDIENCE
    This program is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows, urologists and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of prostate cancer.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Appraise published research on the optimal management of biochemical recurrence after local treatment for prostate cancer, and counsel appropriate patients regarding the potential benefits of systemic therapy.
    • Evaluate the published research database supporting the FDA approvals of secondary hormonal agents for the management of nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, and apply this information in the discussion of nonresearch treatment options.
    • Explore available data with treatment intensification with cytotoxic therapy, secondary hormonal therapy or combinations of these approaches for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, and effectively integrate these strategies into current clinical management algorithms.
    • Establish an evidence-based approach to the selection and sequencing of available therapeutic options for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), considering age, comorbidities, prior therapeutic exposure and other relevant clinical and biological factors.
    • Assess the available research database supporting the use of PARP inhibitors as monotherapy or in combination with androgen receptor pathway inhibitors for patients with mCRPC harboring a homologous recombination repair gene alteration, and discern how to optimally incorporate these agents into current clinical management algorithms.
    • Recall the design of ongoing clinical trials evaluating other novel agents and strategies for prostate cancer, and counsel appropriate patients about availability and participation.
