CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

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

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Describe cereblon’s function in multiple myeloma (MM) formation and growth and its role in the degradation of key oncogenic proteins in order to better understand the rationale for the development of cereblon E3 ligase modulators (CELMoDs).
    • Review the mechanism of action and unique characteristics of the CELMoDs under development for MM, and appreciate the similarities and differences between these therapies and currently approved immunomodulatory agents.
    • Evaluate published efficacy and safety findings with CELMoDs in the advanced stages of development to prepare for the potential clinical availability of these agents for patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM.
    • Assess the biological rationale for combining CELMoDs with other agents commonly administered to patients with MM, and recognize available and emerging research findings with various combination approaches.
    • Appreciate the frequency and severity of various therapy-related adverse events encountered by patients undergoing treatment with CELMoDs, and use this knowledge to identify, manage and mitigate resultant side effects.
    • Consider the rationale for and designs of ongoing clinical trials evaluating CELMoDs for newly diagnosed and R/R MM, and counsel appropriately selected patients about the potential benefits of study participation.
