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 cancer.

    PURPOSE STATEMENT
    By providing information on the latest research developments in the context of expert perspectives, this CNE (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 cancer.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Comprehend how DNA damage repair pathway abnormalities can be exploited with PARP inhibition to elicit therapeutic benefit for patients with various cancers, including ovarian cancer, breast cancer, pancreatic adenocarcinoma and prostate cancer.
    • Understand the correlation between BRCA1/2 mutations and the development of hereditary cancers, and counsel patients with these genetic abnormalities regarding their long-term outlook and therapeutic options.
    • Assess available and emerging clinical trial data with and FDA indications for the various PARP inhibitors used for ovarian cancer, and develop strategies to identify patients for whom this approach might be appropriate.
    • Recognize the FDA-endorsed indications for the commercially available PARP inhibitors in the management of metastatic breast cancer, and discern how these agents can be optimally employed in nonresearch patient care.
    • Advise individuals with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma found to harbor a germline BRCA mutation about recently presented clinical trial findings documenting the efficacy of PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy.
    • Describe the rationale for testing patients with metastatic prostate cancer for BRCA1/2 or other related mutations, and advise appropriate individuals found to harbor these genetic abnormalities about available clinical research data documenting the efficacy of PARP inhibition.
    • Assess the pharmacologic, pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic similarities and differences among the commercially available and investigational PARP inhibitors to better understand the activity and toxicities associated with these agents.
