CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

  • TARGET AUDIENCE
    This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows, cardiologists and other allied healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and mantle cell lymphoma.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Appreciate the frequency and severity of various therapy-related adverse events (AEs) commonly encountered by patients undergoing treatment with BTK and Bcl-2 inhibitors for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), and enact effective monitoring processes and procedures for appropriate individuals.
    • Recall strategies commonly employed to identify, manage and mitigate AEs associated with these agents, and, when necessary, use this information to appropriately intervene in patients for whom toxicities are suspected or diagnosed.
    • Compare and contrast the side-effect and toxicity profiles of the various FDA-approved BTK and Bcl-2 inhibitors, and recall the patient- and disease-specific factors affecting the decision to commence treatment with one versus the others.
    • Appraise the role of multidisciplinary specialists, such as cardio-oncologists and rheumatologists, in the management of treatment-related AEs, and effectively collaborate with these clinicians to offer best-practice care for patients with CLL and MCL experiencing these toxicities.
