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 lung cancer.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Consider available clinical research data with approved and novel HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and HER2 mutations or HER2 overexpression, and consider the role of ADCs in clinical care.
    • Appreciate the incidence of TROP2 overexpression in patients with NSCLC, and determine its potential utility as a biomarker of response to investigational ADCs for metastatic NSCLC.
    • Describe mechanisms of tumor resistance to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and discern how ADCs targeting HER3 may be beneficial in the care of patients with progressive disease with EGFR mutations.
    • Recognize the rationale for developing therapeutic agents for other novel targets such as CEACAM5 (carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 5) and c-MET for NSCLC
    • Discern the side effects and toxicities associated with ADCs under investigation for metastatic NSCLC, and identify strategies to manage and mitigate them.
    • Recall ongoing trials evaluating the potential role of novel ADCs for metastatic NSCLC, and counsel appropriate patients regarding enrollment.
