CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

  • TARGET AUDIENCE
    This program is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows and other allied healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of prostate cancer.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Apply clinical research findings in the selection and sequencing of available local and systemic treatment modalities for patients with metastatic prostate cancer.
    • Evaluate the published research database supporting the use of cytotoxic and secondary hormonal therapy in the setting of metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) to design effective treatment plans for patients.
    • Recall the recent FDA approvals of enzalutamide and apalutamide for patients with mHSPC, and effectively integrate these agents into clinical practice.
    • Consider the adverse effects associated with hormonal agents commonly employed in the treatment of prostate cancer, and develop strategies to prevent, mitigate and manage these toxicities.
    • Explore available and emerging research data on the optimal management of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, and apply recent advances to current clinical care.
    • Understand the rationale for genetic testing for BRCA1/2 and other mutations in patients with prostate cancer, and advise those found to harbor these genetic alterations about the FDA approvals and potential benefits of PARP inhibitors.
    • Recall the design of ongoing clinical trials evaluating other novel agents and strategies for prostate cancer, and counsel appropriate patients about availability and participation.
