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 chronic myeloid leukemia.

    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 chronic myeloid leukemia.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Evaluate factors, including age, comorbidities, personal preferences and side-effect profile, that contribute to the selection and sequencing of therapies for chronic-phase CML, and counsel patients regarding personalized treatment recommendations.
    • Assess the means by which tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) inhibit CML growth and progression, and recollect which of these agents are available to patients with each phase of the disease.
    • Interrogate available data on the feasibility of TKI discontinuation for patients with a sustained response to therapy, and identify appropriate candidates for this approach.
    • Review the mechanism of action of and published efficacy and safety data with STAMP (specifically targeting the ABL myristoyl pocket) inhibitors for CML, and appreciate the current role of these agents in the management of newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory disease.
    • Implement a plan of care to recognize and manage class-effect and agent-specific toxicities associated with therapeutic agents commonly employed for patients with CML to support quality of life and continuation of treatment.
