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 multiple myeloma.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Customize the selection of first-line therapy for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM), considering new clinical research findings, patient- and disease-related factors including cytogenetic profile, and fitness for stem cell transplantation.
    • Appreciate clinical trial data informing the front-line use of monoclonal antibody therapy directed at CD38 for patients with MM eligible or ineligible for stem cell transplant, and effectively identify when and how this strategy should be integrated into clinical management.
    • Consider published research findings and other clinical factors in the best-practice sequencing of established and novel agents and regimens in the care of patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM.
    • Understand the mechanisms of action of and pivotal clinical trial findings with FDA-approved novel therapies to facilitate their integration into MM management algorithms.
    • Evaluate the biological rationale for and published research information with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy directed at B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) as a targeted therapeutic strategy for MM, and identify patients for whom treatment with this novel approach should be considered or recommended.
    • Assess available findings with BCMA- and non-BCMA-directed bispecific antibodies for MM, and recognize patients for whom treatment with one of these novel agents would be appropriate.
    • Review recently presented clinical research findings establishing the definitive efficacy of BCMA-directed antibody-drug conjugate therapy, and recognize the potential role of this form of treatment.
    • Recall the mechanisms of action of and available research data with novel investigational agents and strategies for MM, and provide appropriate counsel to patients about participation in relevant clinical trials.
