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 lymphoma.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Recall ongoing research evaluating novel chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell approaches for various forms of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and counsel appropriate patients regarding the potential benefits of trial participation.
    • Appreciate available efficacy and safety data with CAR T-cell therapies directed at CD19, and identify patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) large cell lymphomas for whom this approach may be appropriate.
    • Recognize adverse events associated with available CAR T-cell therapies, and implement strategies to educate patients and manage complications.
    • Evaluate the FDA-approved indication for axicabtagene ciloleucel for patients with R/R follicular lymphoma, and determine how to optimally integrate this agent into treatment algorithms.
    • Consider available clinical trial findings informing the use of CD19-directed CAR T-cell therapy for R/R mantle cell lymphoma, and counsel appropriately selected patients regarding the potential benefits of this therapeutic strategy.
