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 breast cancer.
  
  LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Consider available clinical trial findings with CDK4/6 inhibitors for localized hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer, and identify patients for whom adjuvant treatment with one of these agents may be appropriate.
  • Evaluate biological and patient- and treatment-related factors to personalize the selection and sequencing of therapy for HR-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (mBC).
  • Review available research documenting the correlation between the presence of various biomarkers, such as PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alterations and ESR1 mutations, and response to specific therapies, and develop optimal molecular testing algorithms for patients with HR-positive mBC.
  • Appraise published efficacy and safety data from randomized clinical trials evaluating CDK4/6 inhibitors for HR-positive mBC, and use this information to appropriately counsel patients about the optimal clinical use of these agents.
  • Employ evidence-based approaches to targeting PI3K pathway mutations in patients with HR-positive mBC.
  • Understand the mechanism of action of, published research findings with and current and future clinical roles for oral selective estrogen receptor degraders for patients with HR-positive mBC.
  • Interrogate published Phase III research documenting the efficacy of AKT inhibitors for patients with progressive HR-positive mBC to determine the current clinical applicability of this approach.
  • Recognize the side effects and toxicities associated with available and investigational endocrine-based therapies used in the care of patients with breast cancer, and identify management and mitigation strategies.
