Activity Description

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) encompass a diverse group of myeloid malignancies, and new data are changing what can be considered “optimal” care. In this “Seminar and Workshop” activity, two hematology-oncology experts employ case-centric discussions to provide experienced instruction on the changing nature of individualized care for patients with MDS. This activity includes updated evidence supporting the use of innovative therapies for first-line management of MDS anemia, how to treat patients with ESA-refractory MDS, and treatment strategies for individuals presenting with high-risk mutations or cytogenetics. Watch now and take your treatment plans for patients with MDS to new heights!

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of hematologist-oncologists, hematologists, nurses, pharmacists, advanced practice clinicians (including hematology-oncology NPs and PAs), and other team-based clinicians involved in the management of MDS.

Educational Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Cite clinical, cytogenetic, and molecular features that can inform timely, accurate diagnosis and prognosis in the MDS setting
  • Describe the evidence that supports the use of innovative therapeutics, including erythroid maturation agents, telomerase inhibitors, hypomethylating agent platforms, BCL2 inhibitors, and immunotherapy, in the management of patients with low-risk or high-risk MDS
  • Develop personalized MDS treatment protocols for the first-line management of anemia, in the ESA-refractory setting, and for patients presenting with high-risk MDS subtypes
  • Address practical aspects of modern MDS therapy, including appropriate dose selection, response monitoring, and therapy-related adverse events management

Level Up With Personalized Care for CLL/SLL: Achieving Better Total Care With Targeted Agents & Innovative Combinations

Media: Enduring Material
Activity Release Date: September 7, 2023
Activity Expiration Date: October 6, 2024
Time to Complete Activity: 60 minutes

Activity Description

Innovative therapeutics have transformed the management of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and allowed patients a greater range of treatment options. Covalent BTK inhibitors (BTKi) and BCL2 inhibitors (BCL2i) have demonstrated efficacy in a wide variety of treatment settings, and newer, non-covalent BTKi are poised to overcome long-standing therapeutic standards. Do you have the tools needed to “level up” your practice?

Find out in this “Clinical Consults” activity based on a symposium that was recorded at the Society of Hematologic Oncology’s 11th Annual Meeting. Throughout this program, a panel of leading CLL experts use conversational, case-based dialogue to provide guidance on integrating modern therapeutics anchored by BTKi and BCL2i regimens, along with rapidly emerging non-covalent BTKi and BTKi-BCL2i combinations. Join the leading lights of CLL, sharpen your therapeutic skills, and reach the next level of CLL care today!

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of hematologist-oncologists, hematologists, nurses, pharmacists, advanced practice clinicians (including hematology-oncology NPs and PAs), and other clinicians involved in the management of CLL.

Educational Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Cite current evidence and updated practice guidelines supporting the use of targeted agents and emerging treatment options in CLL, such as BTK and BCL2 inhibitors, CAR-T, and bispecifics

Targeting Interleukins to Improve Treatment Outcomes in Atopic Dermatitis

Media: Enduring Material
Activity Release Date: August 25, 2023
Activity Expiration Date: September 24, 2024
Time to Complete Activity: 30 minutes

Activity Description

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic disease that affects a significant portion of the US population. The current treatment paradigm for AD is complex, involving multiple active drugs tailored to different body parts, stages of the disease, and severity levels, in addition to moisturizers, bathing practices, and lifestyle recommendations. However, the effectiveness of certain available treatment options is limited because of concerns regarding efficacy, tolerability, and safety. In recent years, there have been significant advancements in the treatment of AD, including the approval of the first biologic agent and the ongoing clinical development of targeted therapies.

In this activity, a panel of experts discuss the severity of AD across different patient populations, considering the chronic and heterogeneous nature of the disease, and the underlying pathophysiologic processes that contribute to the development of AD. In addition, they explore individualizing treatment for patients with moderate to severe AD, with a goal of minimizing and preventing flares.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of dermatology nurse practitioners and physician assistants and other healthcare professionals involved in the care of patients with atopic dermatitis.

Educational Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Diagnose the severity of AD across different patient populations, considering the chronic and heterogeneous nature of the disease
  • Describe underlying pathophysiologic processes that contribute to the development of AD, and provide rationale for the use of targeted biologic therapy
  • Select appropriate treatment for patients with moderate to severe AD, including biologic agents as appropriate, according to recent clinical evidence and current guidelines, with a goal of minimizing/preventing flares

Start

Now Is the Time to Overcome Therapeutic Inertia in T2D to Achieve Personalized Glycemic and Weight Management Goals

Activity Description and Educational Objectives

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a progressive disease that is largely preventable and entirely treatable. Timely intensification of therapy is a foundational principle of contemporary management of people with T2D since this strategy is associated with better long-term health outcomes. In conjunction with intensified therapy, modest weight loss has been shown to improve overall and long-term health outcomes. In this activity, based on a series of Project ECHO® workshops and produced in collaboration with the American College of Diabetology, you’ll learn best practices for individualizing patient care and intensifying therapy with evidence-based pharmacologic management of T2D with non-insulin glucose-lowering therapies. Now is the time! Watch today to begin adding these practical strategies to your toolbox!

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Intensify treatment in people with T2D consistent with the latest guidelines, available evidence, and shared decision-making principles to control glycemia and weight to optimize outcomes and avoid long-term complications
  • Explain the rationale for targeting weight and establish personalized weight loss goals as a treatment priority for comprehensive T2D management
  • Counsel people with T2D about the relationship between obesity and diabetes and the importance of achieving and maintaining a healthy weight as a T2D treatment priority

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of primary care physicians, nurse practitioners (NPs), physician assistants (PAs), and other healthcare professionals involved in the care of patients with type 2 diabetes.

Scoring Comprehensive T2DM Management Goals: Examining the Multifaceted Effects of GLP-1 Receptor Agonists

Media: Enduring Material
Activity Release Date: June 27, 2023
Activity Expiration Date: June 26, 2024
Time to Complete Activity: 60 minutes

Activity Description

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a worldwide health concern. With more people living longer, the prevalence of chronic comorbid diseases has increased dramatically, and there is a resurgence in diabetic complications. T2DM shares risk factors with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), the leading cause of death among patients with T2DM. Furthermore, T2DM is a leading cause of kidney failure. How can clinicians address the underlying pathophysiology and comorbid organ damage that is frequently associated with T2DM? This activity seeks to answer that question using patient cases to examine where GLP-1 receptor agonists (RAs) fit in modern treatment algorithms and help recognize the differences between GLP-1 RA options. Importantly, you’ll also hear practical strategies to help navigate the ins and outs of patient-centered care.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of primary care providers (PCPs) including family practice physicians, nurse practitioners (NPs), physician assistants (PAs), and other healthcare professionals involved in the care of patients with T2DM.

Educational Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Explain the rationale for using GLP-1 RAs in comprehensive T2DM management plans to optimize patient outcomes and reduce the risk of associated complications
  • Compare current and emerging agents targeting GLP-1 based on their mechanisms of action, dosing frequency, efficacy, safety, and tolerability profiles
  • Identify patients who would benefit from the multifaceted glycemic and extra-glycemic effects of GLP-1 RAs as part of comprehensive T2DM management plans
  • Counsel, as a member of a multidisciplinary care team, patients with T2DM about the long-term efficacy, safety, and convenience that GLP-1 RAs have to offer as a means to achieving individualized glycemic and non-glycemic health goals

Scoring Comprehensive T2DM Management Goals: Examining the Multifaceted Effects of GLP-1 Receptor Agonists

Media: Enduring Material
Activity Release Date: June 27, 2023
Activity Expiration Date: June 26, 2024
Time to Complete Activity: 60 minutes

Activity Description

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a worldwide health concern. With more people living longer, the prevalence of chronic comorbid diseases has increased dramatically, and there is a resurgence in diabetic complications. T2DM shares risk factors with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), the leading cause of death among patients with T2DM. Furthermore, T2DM is a leading cause of kidney failure. How can clinicians address the underlying pathophysiology and comorbid organ damage that is frequently associated with T2DM? This activity seeks to answer that question using patient cases to examine where GLP-1 receptor agonists (RAs) fit in modern treatment algorithms and help recognize the differences between GLP-1 RA options. Importantly, you’ll also hear practical strategies to help navigate the ins and outs of patient-centered care.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of primary care providers (PCPs) including family practice physicians, nurse practitioners (NPs), physician assistants (PAs), and other healthcare professionals involved in the care of patients with T2DM.

Educational Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Explain the rationale for using GLP-1 RAs in comprehensive T2DM management plans to optimize patient outcomes and reduce the risk of associated complications
  • Compare current and emerging agents targeting GLP-1 based on their mechanisms of action, dosing frequency, efficacy, safety, and tolerability profiles
  • Identify patients who would benefit from the multifaceted glycemic and extra-glycemic effects of GLP-1 RAs as part of comprehensive T2DM management plans
  • Counsel, as a member of a multidisciplinary care team, patients with T2DM about the long-term efficacy, safety, and convenience that GLP-1 RAs have to offer as a means to achieving individualized glycemic and non-glycemic health goals

Start

New and Emerging Biomarkers in Patient-Centered MS Management: The Future of Personalized Patient Care Begins Now

Activity Description and Educational Objectives

Recent research and improved understanding of the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) has led to the development of multiple biomarkers and imaging modalities that can improve clinicians’ ability to individualize therapy through more effective monitoring of disease progression and treatment response. The promise of eventually arriving at data-driven personalized care—coupled with the number of available and emerging therapies for MS treatment—makes it more important than ever that clinicians remain up-to-date on advances in biomarkers and imaging approaches, as well as shared decision-making strategies.

In this activity, based on a recent live symposium, MS experts cover the latest data on these new and emerging biomarkers for MS management. Using examples from their own practice, the panelists also discuss ways to incorporate these biomarker findings into individualized treatment decisions to empower patients and improve treatment outcomes.

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Describe emerging biomarkers that may play a role in evaluating MS disease activity, progression, and treatment response
  • Individualize treatment decisions for patients with MS, incorporating biomarker findings, disease status, and other patient-specific characteristics
  • Integrate team-based shared decision-making strategies to facilitate appropriate treatment selection, empower patients, and improve outcomes

New and Emerging Biomarkers in Patient-Centered MS Management: The Future of Personalized Patient Care Begins Now

Activity Description and Educational Objectives

Recent research and improved understanding of the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) has led to the development of multiple biomarkers and imaging modalities that can improve clinicians’ ability to individualize therapy through more effective monitoring of disease progression and treatment response. The promise of eventually arriving at data-driven personalized care—coupled with the number of available and emerging therapies for MS treatment—makes it more important than ever that clinicians remain up-to-date on advances in biomarkers and imaging approaches, as well as shared decision-making strategies.

In this activity, based on a recent live symposium, MS experts cover the latest data on these new and emerging biomarkers for MS management. Using examples from their own practice, the panelists also discuss ways to incorporate these biomarker findings into individualized treatment decisions to empower patients and improve treatment outcomes.

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Describe emerging biomarkers that may play a role in evaluating MS disease activity, progression, and treatment response
  • Individualize treatment decisions for patients with MS, incorporating biomarker findings, disease status, and other patient-specific characteristics
  • Integrate team-based shared decision-making strategies to facilitate appropriate treatment selection, empower patients, and improve outcomes

Time to Complete Activity: 90 minutes

Activity Description

Approaches to managing patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are undergoing renovation! A recent wave of improved therapeutic regimens, including immunotherapy/anti-VEGF combinations (eg, atezolizumab and bevacizumab), dual immunotherapy combinations (ie, durvalumab-tremelimumab), and next-generation TKIs (ie, lenvatinib) has been introduced in the upfront setting. Recent additions to the second-line setting have delivered improved options for patients with HCC including immune checkpoint inhibitors (eg, pembrolizumab and tislelizumab) and multikinase inhibitors (ie, cabozantinib and regorafenib). Emerging data on other up-and-coming targeted platforms are forthcoming, including evidence for perioperative applications in earlier disease settings. With all of these developments, how should we update our clinical rulebooks for treating HCC?

This activity, based on a recent live symposium, uncovers innovative treatment strategies in early and intermediate HCC and presents validated and emerging strategies in advanced HCC. The unique Tumor Board format uses case-based scenarios to facilitate an interactive discussion covering practical guidance you can use to renovate your own clinical rulebook.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of gastrointestinal oncologists, medical oncologists, interventional radiologists, hepatologists, advanced practice clinicians, and other healthcare professionals involved in the care of patients with HCC.

Educational Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Examine the latest clinical evidence supporting the use of immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and combination regimens for the management of HCC
  • Integrate individualized treatment plans for patients with HCC based on the latest clinical evidence, expert recommendations, and patient-specific factors
  • Employ team-based strategies and practical considerations when integrating novel HCC regimens, including monitoring, patient consultation, and adverse event management
