CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

• TARGET AUDIENCE
  This program is intended for medical oncologists, hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other allied healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of breast cancer.
  
  LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Appreciate the rationale for ovarian function suppression/ablation as a therapeutic strategy for premenopausal patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive breast cancer.
  • Assimilate information documenting the efficacy of adding gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHas) to standard adjuvant endocrine therapy for localized HR-positive premenopausal breast cancer, and identify patients appropriate for this strategy.
  • Optimize GnRHa therapy in the care of premenopausal women with HR-positive breast cancer, and consider expert opinion and published data to guide the timing of initiation and duration of treatment.
  • Recognize the potential for chemotherapy-induced premature ovarian insufficiency with agents used in breast cancer therapy, and assess the effectiveness and potential role of various interventions in preserving ovarian hormone production and facilitating successful childbirth.
  • Identify common and troublesome side effects associated with GnRHa therapy in patients with breast cancer, and formulate supportive care strategies to minimize and manage these toxicities.
