CE Information and Faculty Disclosures

  • TARGET AUDIENCE
    This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of oncology nurses, nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists involved in the treatment of ovarian cancer.

    PURPOSE STATEMENT
    By providing information on the latest research developments in the context of expert perspectives, this NCPD activity will assist oncology nurses, nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists with the formulation of state-of-the-art clinical management strategies to facilitate optimal care of patients with ovarian cancer.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES

    • Understand clinical research findings with PARP inhibitors as maintenance therapy after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy for patients with advanced OC, and provide appropriate counsel regarding personalized treatment recommendations.
    • Evaluate the biological rationale for and published clinical research data with PARP inhibitors in combination with other systemic therapies, and consider the implications of these findings for OC management.
    • Appraise biological and patient- and treatment-related factors to individualize the selection and sequencing of therapy for platinum-sensitive and platinum-resistant recurrent OC.
    • Assess clinical trial data with and newly adapted indications for FDA-endorsed PARP inhibitors for recurrent, platinum-sensitive and multiregimen-refractory OC, and optimally incorporate these agents into management algorithms.
    • Discern the rationale for targeting folate receptor alpha in OC, determine optimal methods to test for this newly relevant biomarker and evaluate the role of novel approaches to exploit it in clinical practice.
    • Appreciate the side effects associated with various commonly used systemic therapies for OC.
    • Recall the designs of ongoing clinical trials evaluating novel agents and strategies for OC, and counsel patients about availability and participation.
