CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

  • TARGET AUDIENCE
    This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of oncology nurses, nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists involved in the treatment of small cell lung cancer.

    PURPOSE STATEMENT
    By providing information on the latest research developments in the context of expert perspectives, this NCPD activity will assist oncology nurses, nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists with the formulation of state-of-the-art clinical management strategies to facilitate optimal care of patients with small cell lung cancer.

    • Review research findings with anti-PD-L1 antibodies in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy for previously untreated extensive-stage SCLC, and consider how these regimens are appropriately and safely integrated into clinical practice.
    • Counsel patients with progressive SCLC regarding personalized therapeutic decision-making, considering prior treatment, symptoms and other factors.
    • Recognize common side effects of systemic agents used for SCLC, and implement strategies to minimize and ameliorate them.
