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 colorectal and gastroesophageal cancers.
  
  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 lung cancer.
  
  LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Educate patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) on the importance of tumor-specific (eg, biomarker status, tumor location) and patient-specific factors in the selection and sequencing of therapy.
  • Evaluate available data with anti-VEGF- and anti-EGFR-based regimens as first-line treatment for mCRC, and identify patients who may optimally benefit from these forms of therapy.
  • Recognize available data with anti-HER2 therapy for patients with HER2-positive mCRC, and consider the current and future role of various investigational approaches.
  • Assess the relevance of molecular tumor biomarkers to develop strategies for counseling patients with locally advanced or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer about personalized treatment recommendations.
  • Recognize common and rare side effects associated with approved and investigational agents used in the care of patients with colorectal and gastroesophageal cancers, and apply this information to develop appropriate and effective supportive management plans.
  • Recall available data with and ongoing clinical testing of investigational agents and strategies for colorectal and gastroesophageal cancers, and appropriately refer eligible patients for trial participation.
