Democratizing the CAR-T Experience: The Principles and Practice of Outpatient Cellular Therapy

Democratizing the CAR-T Experience: The Principles and Practice of Outpatient Cellular Therapy

Start

Democratizing the CAR-T Experience: The Principles and Practice of Outpatient Cellular Therapy

Activity Description and Educational Objectives

CAR-T cell therapies are now proven management options for hematological malignancies, with new evidence validating their role in earlier lines of treatment for patients with diseases such as DLBCL and multiple myeloma. Although mainly administered in the inpatient setting, delivering CAR-T cell therapy in the outpatient setting represents a more convenient and patient-friendly approach with the potential to facilitate the modern immunotherapy experience for many patients with hematologic cancers.

Based on a symposium from the 2024 Tandem Meetings of ASTCT and CIBMTR, this activity features an expert panel that covers key principles for developing an outpatient infrastructure, ensuring adequate staffing, and implementing modern treatment protocols informed by real-world experience with cellular therapy. Through a series of practically focused lectures, the experts illustrate how practice-changing evidence with CAR-T constructs can be applied to an outpatient setting and offer guidance on overcoming obstacles to implementation, including barriers to patient selection, adverse events, and adequate staffing. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how to “democratize” the CAR-T experience and join the outpatient movement now!

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

  • Cite updated evidence supporting the integration of CAR-T constructs into the management of hematologic cancers, including as a preferred second-line option or in the setting of early relapse
  • Summarize evidence, including patient outcomes and practical aspects, related to the successful implementation of an outpatient cellular therapy program
  • Address practical aspects of outpatient CAR-T administration, including patient selection, staffing, and management of adverse events
  • Utilize strategies such as telemedicine, wearable devices, and optimized selection of products, among others, to ensure successful outpatient delivery of CAR-T therapy

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of hematologist-oncologists, oncologists, transplant and cellular therapy physician and nurse specialists, and other clinicians involved in the care of patients with hematologic cancers who are potential CAR-T therapy candidates.

Requirements for Successful Completion

In order to receive credit, participants must view the activity and complete the post-test and evaluation form. There are no prerequisites and there is no fee to participate in this activity or to receive CME/NCPD credit. Statements of Credit are awarded upon successful completion of the post-test and evaluation form.

For nurses, the post-test and evaluation form are required in their entirety and a score of 75% or higher is needed to obtain Nursing Continuing Professional Development (NCPD) credit. There are no prerequisites and there is no fee to participate in this activity or to receive NCPD credit.

Cracking Down on Post-Transplant CMV: Guidance on Sequential Treatment With Newer Antiviral Agents

Start

Cracking Down on Post-Transplant CMV: Guidance on Sequential Treatment With Newer Antiviral Agents

Activity Description and Educational Objectives

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) remains a challenging complication of hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT), with many patients experiencing resistant/refractory (R/R) infection or treatment intolerance after standard frontline treatment. Modern, newly developed antiviral options have the potential to address these challenges and offer clinicians a potent tool for use against persistent CMV infections. Newer antivirals also have the potential to enhance personalized care for patients with hard-to-treat CMV infection and overcome treatment resistance in the post-HCT setting.

In this activity recorded at the 2024 Tandem Meetings, experts assess the evidence behind modern antiviral agents as a foundation for case-based demonstrations of how to combat CMV in real-world practice. Throughout, the panelists will share strategies for treating R/R infections, overcoming treatment intolerance, and caring for patients whose post-HCT goals have been compromised by persistent CMV. Learn how cracking down on CMV can contribute to successful post-transplant outcomes!

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

  • Discuss the efficacy and safety data and biologic rationale supporting the integration of newer antiviral agents into modern treatment plans for resistant/refractory cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections in the post-HCT setting
  • Develop team-based, personalized treatment plans that include newer antiviral agents along the continuum of post-HCT CMV infection management, including in the settings of resistant or refractory disease
  • Implement collaborative protocols to address practical aspects of antiviral care when using newer antiviral strategies, including monitoring, patient/caregiver education, adherence, and adverse event management

Target Audience

Reinforcing the “Bridge” to HCT in AML: Clinical Conversations on Augmenting Efficacy With Innovative Options as Pre-Transplant and Maintenance Strategies

Reinforcing the “Bridge” to HCT in AML: Clinical Conversations on Augmenting Efficacy With Innovative Options as Pre-Transplant and Maintenance Strategies

Start

Reinforcing the “Bridge” to HCT in AML: Clinical Conversations on Augmenting Efficacy With Innovative Options as Pre-Transplant and Maintenance Strategies

Activity Description and Educational Objectives

While hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) has remained a constant in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) care, newer cytotoxic platforms, next-generation FLT3i, and emerging immune-based approaches are displacing conventional strategies as more effective pre-transplant and post-HCT maintenance options, allowing clinicians to develop a more personalized approach to AML management and reinforce and deepen the benefits achieved with HCT.

In this activity, join the experts and learn how to enhance outcomes by using modern therapies in conjunction with HCT by viewing case-based guidance on “bridging” to and from transplant with newer therapeutics, including as induction/consolidation with modern targeted and cytotoxic platforms, advances with post-HCT maintenance, and the role of radioimmunoconjugates as pre-HCT conditioning. This is an excellent opportunity to stay abreast of the latest developments in AML care and learn what new science will mean for delivering and enhancing the efficacy of HCT for eligible patients.

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

  • Cite evidence supporting the personalized use of newer cytotoxic platforms, targeted agents, radioimmunoconjugates, and immunotherapy as pre-transplant strategies in different AML settings
  • Select pre-HCT therapy for patients with ND or R/R AML based on targetable mutations, transplant candidacy, functional status, treatment setting, or disease subtype
  • Manage optimized dosing, response monitoring, and safety management consideration when using modern therapeutic platforms in the AML setting

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of hematologist-oncologists, oncologists, transplant and cellular therapy physician and nurse specialists, and other clinicians involved in the care of patients with AML.

Reinforcing the “Bridge” to HCT in AML: Clinical Conversations on Augmenting Efficacy With Innovative Options as Pre-Transplant and Maintenance Strategies

Activity Description and Educational Objectives

While hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) has remained a constant in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) care, newer cytotoxic platforms, next-generation FLT3i, and emerging immune-based approaches are displacing conventional strategies as more effective pre-transplant and post-HCT maintenance options, allowing clinicians to develop a more personalized approach to AML management and reinforce and deepen the benefits achieved with HCT.

In this activity, join the experts and learn how to enhance outcomes by using modern therapies in conjunction with HCT by viewing case-based guidance on “bridging” to and from transplant with newer therapeutics, including as induction/consolidation with modern targeted and cytotoxic platforms, advances with post-HCT maintenance, and the role of radioimmunoconjugates as pre-HCT conditioning. This is an excellent opportunity to stay abreast of the latest developments in AML care and learn what new science will mean for delivering and enhancing the efficacy of HCT for eligible patients.

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

  • Cite evidence supporting the personalized use of newer cytotoxic platforms, targeted agents, radioimmunoconjugates, and immunotherapy as pre-transplant strategies in different AML settings
  • Select pre-HCT therapy for patients with ND or R/R AML based on targetable mutations, transplant candidacy, functional status, treatment setting, or disease subtype
  • Manage optimized dosing, response monitoring, and safety management consideration when using modern therapeutic platforms in the AML setting

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of hematologist-oncologists, oncologists, transplant and cellular therapy physician and nurse specialists, and other clinicians involved in the care of patients with AML.

Activity Release Date: March 26, 2024
Activity Expiration Date: March 25, 2025
Time to Complete Activity: 30 minutes

Activity Description

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a common, yet highly treatable progressive disease. Prompt therapy escalation is critical to contemporary management of people with T2DM (PwT2DM) as this correlates with improved long-term outcomes. Despite evidence-based guidelines recommending treatment intensification if glycemic goals are not achieved within three months, less than 50% of PwT2DM are managed appropriately. Further, outcomes for PwT2DM can also be significantly improved with weight loss, and current guidelines recommend PwT2DM lose weight and maintain weight loss. Yet, this is rarely achieved and the significance of modest weight loss is often underestimated, despite its impact on overall and long-term health outcomes. What are our next steps as primary care professionals?

In this activity, an expert utilizes simulated patient videos—thanks to a talented actor from the University of Delaware’s Healthcare Theatre Program—to present what primary care clinicians need to know to better serve PwT2DM in their practices. By the end, learners will have gained knowledge about how to intensify treatment for T2DM to minimize complications and gain the confidence needed to motivate patients using a personalized approach and shared decision-making.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of US-based primary care professionals including physicians, NPs, PAs, and other clinicians involved in the management of T2DM.

Educational Objectives

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

  • Apply evidence-based guideline recommendations that prioritize weight loss as a treatment target in PwT2DM
  • Intensify treatment in a timely manner consistent with guideline recommendations and clinical evidence to help PwT2DM achieve personalized glycemic and weight loss goals
  • Utilize shared decision-making to develop individualized management plans for PwT2DM and overweight/obesity that consider their personal preferences, needs, and goals

Start

Accelerating Remission in Multiple Myeloma: Updates on CAR-T, BCMA Antibodies, and Achieving Deep Responses & Enduring Efficacy

Activity Description and Educational Objectives

Are you prepared to learn about BCMA strategies that will help you accelerate the achievement of deep and durable remissions in multiple myeloma (MM)? New evidence is pointing to the use of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) constructs for MM in earlier lines of therapy, which will have implications for sequencing with other BCMA options. At the same time, “off-the-shelf” BCMA antibodies are transforming treatment choices in pretreated disease, offering clinicians another tool to achieve deep remissions. This activity features expert exchanges based around real-world patient cases that illustrate the central role of BCMA bispecifics and CAR-T therapy throughout the MM therapeutic journey. Each case conversation is linked to a short overview of the evidence supporting the experts’ treatment choices. Don’t miss this opportunity to “accelerate remission” and learn how to apply new science on BCMA platforms!

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

  • Cite the safety and efficacy evidence supporting the use of established and emerging anti-BCMA platforms, including CAR-T and off-the-shelf antibody options, across several lines of therapy in MM
  • Integrate evidence-informed anti-BCMA platforms into customized sequential treatment plans for MM, including in early relapse and more heavily pretreated disease
  • Develop protocols to address practical aspects of anti-BCMA therapy, including planning for referral to specialized care, using appropriate bridging regimens, considering off-the-shelf antibody therapy, and understanding dosing and AE management

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of hematologist-oncologists, oncologists, transplant and cellular therapy physician and nurse specialists, and other clinicians involved in the management of multiple myeloma.

Requirements for Successful Completion

In order to receive credit, participants must view the activity and complete the post-test and evaluation form.

Canceling the Cascade of VOD/SOS: Team-Based Prophylaxis, Diagnosis, and Customized Management

Canceling the Cascade of VOD/SOS: Team-Based Prophylaxis, Diagnosis, and Customized Management

Start

Canceling the Cascade of VOD/SOS: Team-Based Prophylaxis, Diagnosis, and Customized Management

Activity Description and Educational Objectives

Veno-occlusive disease/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (VOD/SOS) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality for many individuals in the post-hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) setting. Poor outcomes due to VOD are often driven by its variable onset and presentation complicating diagnosis; unchecked symptoms can lead to endothelial damage and, ultimately, to multiorgan dysfunction and failure. Recent evidence does show that modern, timely, team-based VOD management strategies can improve outcomes, but how can these protocols be adapted to fit real-world clinical practice and diverse patient populations?


In this activity recorded at the 2024 Tandem Meetings, leading transplant experts will provide learners with concise, high-level overviews of relevant science while sharing real-world cases in order to demonstrate modern principles of VOD prophylaxis and management. Throughout, the expert panel will cover topics such as: modern VOD prevention strategies, risk assessment, severity grading, and pharmacologic treatment, with an emphasis on collaborative care models in the post-transplant setting. Don’t miss this opportunity to get expert guidance, build your skillset, and work toward “canceling" the threat of VOD in HCT recipients.

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

  • Cite risk factors for VOD/SOS, current evidence on prophylaxis, and markers of disease severity and multiorgan dysfunction/failure in adult and pediatric patients who are HCT candidates
  • Implement modern diagnostic and severity grading protocols in order to accurately capture and assess VOD/SOS in the post-HCT setting
  • Recommend evidence-based, timely treatment for adult and pediatric patients with VOD in the post-HCT setting, including supportive and pharmacologic measures

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of hematologist-oncologists, oncologists, transplant and cellular therapy physician and nurse specialists, and other clinicians involved in the care of patients with or at risk for VOD/SOS.

Requirements for Successful Completion

In order to receive credit, participants must view the activity and complete the post-test and evaluation form. There are no prerequisites and there is no fee to participate in this activity or to receive CME/NCPD credit. Statements of Credit are awarded upon successful completion of the post-test and evaluation form.


For nurses, the post-test and evaluation form are required in their entirety and a score of 75% or higher is needed to obtain Nursing Continuing Professional Development (NCPD) credit. There are no prerequisites and there is no fee to participate in this activity or to receive NCPD credit.

Advancing ADCs in Gynecologic Cancers: Expert Insights on Recent Evidence, Implementation Strategies, and Patient Care

Media: Enduring Material

Activity Release Date: March 17, 2024

Activity Expiration Date: April 16, 2025

Time to Complete Activity: 60 minutes

Activity Description

As treatment of gynecologic malignancies moves beyond chemotherapy-based regimens, the use of antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) has brought new hope to patients with cervical, endometrial, and ovarian cancers. With some of these agents already FDA approved and others advancing through clinical trials, clinicians have questions on how to incorporate ADCs into the personalized treatment of patients in a variety of settings.


In a new video-based activity developed by PeerView in collaboration with the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC) and the Foundation for Women’s Cancer (FWC), a panel of experts combines foundational knowledge on the science supporting the use of ADCs in the treatment of gynecologic malignancies with discussion of patient cases drawn from their own practice to illustrate key decision points. Get insight on safety and efficacy evidence supporting approved and emerging ADCs and practical guidance on incorporating these agents into personalized treatment plans, including via clinical trial enrollment. Key topics include the role of biomarker testing in patient selection, team-based approaches for managing treatment-related adverse events, and educating patients to foster shared decision-making. Participate now to prepare for the future of gynecologic cancer care.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of medical, gynecologic, surgical, and radiation oncologists; obstetrician-gynecologists; advanced practice clinicians; nurses; and other healthcare professionals involved in the management of patients with gynecologic cancers.

Educational Objectives

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

  • Discuss the rationale for and accumulating safety/efficacy data supporting the use of ADCs in the treatment of gynecologic cancers
  • Integrate approved and emerging ADCs into personalized management plans for eligible patients with gynecologic cancers
  • Utilize patient education, evidence-based approaches, and collaborative management strategies to identify and address treatment-related adverse events associated with use of ADCs in patients with gynecologic cancers to ensure optimal outcomes

Educational Objectives

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

  • Recognize unmet needs and barriers to equitable HA care, including among severe, nonsevere, and female HA populations
  • Summarize the evidence supporting established treatment options, including FVIII mimetic agents, with applications in diverse HA settings, including severe, nonsevere, and female HA populations
  • Develop individualized HA treatment plans with established therapeutics based on disease severity, inhibitor status, gender, and age, among other considerations
  • Employ principles of equitable, team-based, and participatory care when managing persons with HA, to ensure appropriate patient education, adherence counseling, and prompt management of disease- or treatment-related events

Activity Release Date: March 11, 2024

Activity Expiration Date: March 10, 2025

Time to Complete Activity: 30 minutes

Activity Description

Immunotherapy is now the centerpiece of modern, highly effective care for malignant melanoma. The most recent development in the immunotherapy revolution has centered on the validation of fixed-dose PD-1 and LAG-3 inhibitor combinations as an effective and safe frontline option for patients requiring treatment for advanced disease. This has raised a number of clinical questions related to the integration of PD-1/LAG-3 platforms into treatment plans (alongside other immune combinations) and the role of single-agent therapy.


This expert-led activity utilizes case-based teaching and short lectures to address these questions and provide guidance on incorporating the latest evidence on PD-1/LAG-3 therapy into practice, with the goal of illustrating the modern role of immune combinations in the frontline management of metastatic melanoma. The experts discuss how different baseline factors can inform treatment decisions made by the healthcare team, review the role of immunotherapy combinations in BRAF-mutant disease, and address practical aspects associated with the safe and effective delivery of dual checkpoint blockade with PD-1/LAG-3 platforms.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of medical oncologists, advanced practice clinicians, nurses, pharmacists, and other healthcare professionals involved in the care of patients with melanoma.

Educational Objectives

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

  • Cite updated guidelines and efficacy/safety evidence surrounding the use of newer immune-based approaches with PD-1/LAG-3 agents for unresectable and metastatic melanoma
  • Implement personalized treatment plans that include PD-1/LAG-3 combination therapies for unresectable and metastatic melanoma, including in BRAF-mutant or BRAF wild-type disease
  • Address practical aspects associated with newer dual checkpoint inhibition combinations, including irAE management and dosing, by working effectively in team-based care models

Activity Description

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), is a significant complication in cancer patients and a leading cause of mortality in this setting. Despite the availability of numerous guidelines and resources for cancer-associated VTE prevention and treatment, the uneven implementation of effective anticoagulation remains a barrier to highly effective management.


In this PeerView virtual activity, a leading expert on cancer-associated VTE will provide clinical insights and case-based guidance on current prevention and treatment strategies for cancer-associated VTE. Throughout, the faculty will address modern prophylactic and therapeutic anticoagulation options, underscore the importance of risk assessment and timely management, and offer insights into the selection of anticoagulants. Additionally, the expert will highlight the importance of an interprofessional team-based approach, aligned with shared decision-making, when caring for patients at risk of cancer-associated VTE.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of oncologists, NPs, PAs, and other care team clinicians involved in the prevention and management of cancer-associated VTE.

Educational Objectives

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

  • Cite recognized thromboembolic risk factors, guideline recommendations for modern risk assessment, and current evidence supporting modern anticoagulation strategies for cancer-associated VTE
  • Implement risk-adapted prophylaxis and treatment strategies for cancer-associated VTE while employing the principles of equitable, team-based, and participatory care
  • Manage practical aspects of VTE management in the cancer setting, including safe dosing and delivery of therapy, and provision of patient counseling on elevated VTE risks, adherence to treatment plans, and the risks/benefits of anticoagulation

Time to Complete Activity: 45 minutes

Activity Description

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), is a significant complication in cancer patients and a leading cause of mortality in this setting. Despite the availability of numerous guidelines and resources for cancer-associated VTE prevention and treatment, the uneven implementation of effective anticoagulation remains a barrier to highly effective management.


In this PeerView virtual activity, a leading expert on cancer-associated VTE will provide clinical insights and case-based guidance on current prevention and treatment strategies for cancer-associated VTE. Throughout, the faculty will address modern prophylactic and therapeutic anticoagulation options, underscore the importance of risk assessment and timely management, and offer insights into the selection of anticoagulants. Additionally, the expert will highlight the importance of an interprofessional team-based approach, aligned with shared decision-making, when caring for patients at risk of cancer-associated VTE.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of oncologists, NPs, PAs, and other care team clinicians involved in the prevention and management of cancer-associated VTE.

Educational Objectives

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

  • Cite recognized thromboembolic risk factors, guideline recommendations for modern risk assessment, and current evidence supporting modern anticoagulation strategies for cancer-associated VTE
  • Implement risk-adapted prophylaxis and treatment strategies for cancer-associated VTE while employing the principles of equitable, team-based, and participatory care
  • Manage practical aspects of VTE management in the cancer setting, including safe dosing and delivery of therapy, and provision of patient counseling on elevated VTE risks, adherence to treatment plans, and the risks/benefits of anticoagulation

Activity Description

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) represent an exciting frontier in the realm of precision lung cancer care, bringing hope to patients with limited treatment options. The promise of these agents is now transitioning from research settings to real-world practice, but many questions remain to be answered by ongoing studies. In addition to the first HER2-targeting ADC approved for HER2-mutated NSCLC, various other potent ADCs, such as those targeting HER3, TROP2, B7-H3, among many others, are showing promising activity in clinical trials, either as monotherapies or as integral parts of combinations, spanning different settings and patient populations.

This unique educational activity, based on a recent live symposium, features entertaining quiz-based Peer Pressure Challenges during which top experts are put on the spot to compete against each other and test their knowledge about ADCs. These game show segments are combined with related mini-lectures and open discussion forums to review key concepts related to the ADCs, analyze the latest evidence, examine unique nuances of using these therapies in real-world practice, and explore the challenging issues and burning questions about how to maximize the potential of ADCs in lung cancer.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of medical oncologists, advanced practice clinicians, and other multidisciplinary and interprofessional healthcare providers involved in the care of patients with lung cancer.

Educational Objectives

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

  • Discuss the clinical importance and biologic rationale for the use of different ADC-based approaches in lung cancer.
  • Summarize the characteristics, mechanisms of action, and safety and efficacy profiles of various ADCs in lung cancer.
  • Integrate ADCs into treatment plans of carefully selected patients with lung cancer.
  • Follow best practices to identify and manage treatment-related adverse events in patients with lung cancer receiving ADC-based therapies with the entire care team to improve outcomes and quality of life.

Catalysts for Change in SCLC: Optimizing the Use of Standard Therapies and Accelerating the Transition of Emerging Strategies to the Clinic

Media: Enduring Material

Activity Release Date: February 24, 2024

Activity Expiration Date: March 23, 2025

Time to Complete Activity: 60 minutes

Activity Description

In recent years, there have been notable advances in the treatment of small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Several new options have now become guideline-recommended standards of care. Despite these advancements, the prognosis for SCLC remains poor. This justifies efforts to optimize and expand the use of approved treatments and explore novel therapies with different mechanisms of action. Several potential therapeutic strategies are currently under examination in clinical trials that will hopefully lead to a further expansion of the SCLC treatment arsenal.


In this PeerView educational activity, based on a recent live symposium, experts discuss the latest evidence, ongoing trials, clinical cases, and challenging questions to take a deeper dive into the nuances of how to optimally integrate the latest therapeutic advances into clinical practice. The faculty panel provides evidence-based and practical guidance to help the lung cancer care team better understand the current and evolving treatment arsenal for SCLC and improve the care and outcomes of patients with SCLC.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of medical oncologists, advanced practice clinicians, and other clinicians involved in the management of SCLC.

Educational Objectives

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

  • Analyze the role and use of current and emerging therapies for SCLC, and the evidence that supports their use
  • Incorporate current standard-of-care therapies into individualized treatment plans for patients with SCLC based on the latest evidence, guideline recommendations, and patient needs and preferences
  • Recommend enrollment in clinical trials to eligible patients who could benefit from the current and emerging therapies
  • Implement multidisciplinary/interprofessional strategies and shared decision-making to ensure optimal care, including effective management of AEs, throughout the disease continuum for each patient with SCLC

Catalysts for Change in SCLC: Optimizing the Use of Standard Therapies and Accelerating the Transition of Emerging Strategies to the Clinic

Media: Enduring Material

Activity Release Date: February 24, 2024

Activity Expiration Date: March 23, 2025

Time to Complete Activity: 60 minutes

Activity Description

In recent years, there have been notable advances in the treatment of small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Several new options have now become guideline-recommended standards of care. Despite these advancements, the prognosis for SCLC remains poor. This justifies efforts to optimize and expand the use of approved treatments and explore novel therapies with different mechanisms of action. Several potential therapeutic strategies are currently under examination in clinical trials that will hopefully lead to a further expansion of the SCLC treatment arsenal.


In this PeerView educational activity, based on a recent live symposium, experts discuss the latest evidence, ongoing trials, clinical cases, and challenging questions to take a deeper dive into the nuances of how to optimally integrate the latest therapeutic advances into clinical practice. The faculty panel provides evidence-based and practical guidance to help the lung cancer care team better understand the current and evolving treatment arsenal for SCLC and improve the care and outcomes of patients with SCLC.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of medical oncologists, advanced practice clinicians, and other clinicians involved in the management of SCLC.

Educational Objectives

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

  • Analyze the role and use of current and emerging therapies for SCLC, and the evidence that supports their use
  • Incorporate current standard-of-care therapies into individualized treatment plans for patients with SCLC based on the latest evidence, guideline recommendations, and patient needs and preferences
  • Recommend enrollment in clinical trials to eligible patients who could benefit from the current and emerging therapies
  • Implement multidisciplinary/interprofessional strategies and shared decision-making to ensure optimal care, including effective management of AEs, throughout the disease continuum for each patient with SCLC

Disclosure Policy

PVI, PeerView Institute for Medical Education, disclosure policy adheres to The Standards for Integrity and Independence in Accredited Continuing Education. All individuals in a position to control the content of a CE activity, including faculty, planners and reviewers are required to disclose all financial relationships with ineligible companies (commercial interests) that as an entity produces, markets, re-sells or distributes healthcare goods or services consumed by or used on patients.

Addressing Unmet Patient Needs in Bullous Pemphigoid: Exploring Targeted Treatment for Safe and Effective Care


       

Media: Enduring Material
Activity Release Date: February 7, 2024
Activity Expiration Date: February 6, 2025
Time to Complete Activity: 60 minutes

Activity Description

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a rare autoimmune subepidermal blistering disease characterized by large, tense blisters in the skin preceded by urticarial plaques and pruritus. It occurs most frequently in elderly patients, with risk rising exponentially after the age of 80. Diagnosis is often missed or delayed, partly due to it being a rare disorder, and partly due to atypical presentations or similarities with other skin conditions.

Although management guidelines have been updated there is still a lack of consensus on optimal treatment regimens and duration. Systemic corticosteroids and other immunosuppressive agents carry risks of adverse events; thus, targeted agents that are already approved for other diseases are under study for their utility in BP.

In order to help dermatologists and other clinicians treating patients with BP remain updated on advances in treatment, PeerView has prepared this discussion between two expert dermatologists. Learners will hear about the impact of BP on patient quality of life and how to differentiate BP from other skin conditions, as well as how to treat patients using the latest guidelines and targeted therapy.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of dermatologists, dermatology advanced practice providers, and other clinicians who care for patients with bullous pemphigoid.

Educational Objectives

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

  • Identify and differentiate bullous pemphigoid (BP) from other skin conditions that can present similarly, based on current guidelines and expert recommendations
  • Discuss the impact of BP on elderly patients with regard to morbidity/mortality and quality of life, particularly for those with several comorbidities
  • Select and monitor treatment for patients with BP according to updated guidelines
  • Explain the rationale to improve outcomes for patients with BP through the use of targeted therapy

Making an Impact in Bladder Cancer Care: Integrating the Latest Evidence and Modern Therapeutic Advances Across the Disease Continuum


       

Media: Enduring Material
Activity Release Date: January 27, 2024
Activity Expiration Date: February 26, 2025
Time to Complete Activity: 90 minutes

Activity Description

Which treatment advances are making an impact for patients with bladder cancer? Approved and emerging therapeutic strategies that include immune checkpoint inhibitors, antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) and other classes of agents are changing outcomes for patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease, while those with earlier-stage disease, including non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) or high-risk muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), are benefiting from bladder-sparing and perioperative approaches. Join PeerView and the Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network (BCAN) to learn how these treatment advances translate into practice, as clinical decision points are brought to life through discussion of real-world patient cases. Featuring a panel of experts, as well as resources and tools from BCAN, this activity offers learners practical guidance on incorporating the latest data on a variety of therapeutic strategies into the development of personalized treatment plans for patients throughout the disease continuum, creating team-based protocols for managing adverse events, and addressing inequities in diagnosis and treatment to increase access to state-of-the-art care for all patients.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of oncologists, urologists, advanced practice clinicians, and other healthcare professionals involved in the management of bladder cancer.

Educational Objectives

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

  • Summarize current data on therapeutic strategies based on innovative drug delivery techniques, targeted agents, and modern immunotherapy regimens for the treatment of bladder cancer
  • Integrate approved and emerging therapeutic approaches into personalized treatment plans for patients with various stages of bladder cancer, considering evidence, guidelines, and principles of team-based and patient-centered care
  • Implement evidence- and team-based management protocols to address the suite of adverse events associated with bladder cancer therapies
