TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of medical oncologists, hematologists and hematology-oncology fellows.
OVERVIEW OF ACTIVITY
Each year countless data sets related to the management of common cancers are released to the oncology community via presentation at cancer conferences and publication in peer-reviewed journals. This massive outpouring of information has enormous positive benefits for the cancer community, but the truth is it also creates a major challenge for practicing oncologists and hematologists. To bridge the gap between research and patient care, this web-based activity uses a mix of didactic presentations and moderated case-based discussion to apply evidence-based concepts in routine clinical care. The activity focuses on 7 different areas of oncology: breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, genitourinary cancers, non-Hodgkin and Hodgkin lymphomas, multiple myeloma, gastrointestinal cancers and ovarian cancer. These have been selected based on a number of factors, including the overwhelming need for and interest of practicing oncologists in additional educational resources in these areas. By providing access to the latest research developments across these cancers, this activity will assist medical oncologists, hematologists and hematology-oncology fellows in the formulation of up-to-date clinical management strategies.
