CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

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

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Understand published research data informing the selection, sequencing and combining of available therapeutic agents in the nonresearch care of patients with previously untreated or relapsed/refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL).
    • Recognize the mechanisms of action, efficacy and safety of approved and investigational agents for the treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) to determine the current and potential utility of those therapies in clinical practice.
    • Consider patient age, performance status, and other clinical and biologic factors in the up-front and subsequent treatment of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
    • Assess available clinical trial findings informing the use of CD19-directed CAR (chimeric antigen receptor) T-cell therapies for R/R DLBCL, MCL and FL, and counsel appropriately selected patients regarding the potential benefits of this strategy.
    • Recognize and manage the side effects and toxicities associated with existing and recently approved systemic therapies for FL, DLBCL and MCL to support quality of life and continuation of treatment.
    • Recall new data with investigational agents and strategies demonstrating promising activity in various non-Hodgkin lymphoma subtypes, and discuss clinical trial opportunities with eligible patients.
