CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

  • TARGET AUDIENCE
    This activity is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other healthcare providers involved in the treatment of breast cancer.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Appreciate the incidence of TROP2 overexpression in patients with metastatic breast cancer (mBC), and determine the current utility of TROP2-directed antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) in the care of individuals with the disease.
    • Consider available clinical research data with the use of novel HER2-directed ADCs for patients with HER2-low mBC and consider the role of this approach in routine clinical care.
    • Discern the side effects and toxicities associated with FDA-approved ADCs utilized in the care of patients with mBC, and identify strategies to manage and mitigate them.
    • Recognize the rationale for targeting other relevant cell surface proteins in patients with mBC, and consider available and emerging research findings with and the potential role of novel ADCs designed to therapeutically exploit these biomarkers.
    • Evaluate the scientific justification for the use of ADCs in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy and reflect upon available research findings with and ongoing trials investigating these novel regimens in patients with mBC.
    • Recall ongoing trials evaluating the potential role of novel ADCs for mBC, and counsel appropriate individuals regarding enrollment.
