CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

• TARGET AUDIENCE
  This program is intended for medical oncologists, hematologists, hematology-oncology fellows, radiation oncologists, surgeons and other allied healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of breast cancer.
  
  LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Review available research findings documenting the correlation between the presence of various biomarkers (eg, PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alterations, ESR1 mutations) and response to specific therapies, and develop optimal testing algorithms for patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (mBC).
  • Recall the frequency of PI3K pathway mutations in patients with HR-positive mBC, and employ evidence-based approaches to targeting these aberrations.
  • Interrogate published Phase III research findings documenting the efficacy of AKT inhibitors in patients with progressive HR-positive mBC to determine the current clinical applicability of this approach.
  • Evaluate biological, patient- and treatment-related factors to personalize the selection and sequencing of therapy for HR-positive, HER2-negative mBC harboring PI3K/AKT/PTEN pathway abnormalities.
  • Discern the side effects and toxicities associated with available therapies targeting the PI3K/AKT/PTEN pathway, and identify strategies to manage and mitigate them.
