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 prostate cancer.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Infer how various clinical and biologic factors affect the risk of prostate cancer recurrence after local therapy, and design appropriate treatment plans for patients, considering the potential benefits and risks of commonly used forms of androgen deprivation therapy.
    • Assess clinical research findings with secondary hormonal therapy for nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), and appreciate how available agents can be integrated into current clinical algorithms.
    • Explore available data with secondary hormonal therapy for hormone-sensitive metastatic prostate cancer, and use this information to counsel patients regarding therapeutic options.
    • Evaluate available and emerging data sets demonstrating the efficacy and safety of secondary hormonal therapy in combination with other systemic therapies (eg, chemotherapy, PARP inhibitors) for prostate cancer, and consider the applicability of these findings to current and future disease management.
    • Apply clinical research findings in the best-practice selection and sequencing of hormonal therapy and other available systemic treatments for patients with metastatic CRPC.
    • Understand the potential side effects associated with hormonal agents commonly employed in the management of prostate cancer, and develop strategies to prevent, mitigate and manage toxicities.
    • Recall research investigating novel applications of hormonal therapy, and counsel selected patients with localized or metastatic prostate cancer regarding participation in clinical trials.
