Clinical trial evidence that drives current guidelines for patients with CLL/SLL and MCL receiving third-line therapies
1/23/2025
Host: Seema A. Bhat, MD
Host: Jeremy S. Abramson, MD, MMSc
This enduring activity, presented in collaboration with the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN®), focuses on translating oncology clinical practice guidelines into practical strategies for treating CLL/SLL and MCL. Participants will learn how to integrate clinical trial data into guideline-concordant treatment plans for patients that have progressed following a covalent BTK inhibitor.

Chairperson's Perspective: Novel Treatments for Newly Diagnosed Ph+ CML-CP: Striking the Balance of Treatment With Patient Goals and QoL
1/14/2025
Host: Jorge E. Cortes, MD
Although the first-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) revolutionized the treatment of Ph+ CML-CP, the rate of resistance to these agents is high, and many patients require further treatment with second- and third-line therapy. The development of newer drugs with unique mechanisms that can overcome these resistance phenotypes offers new treatment strategies that can maintain response rates. This activity reviews the current treatment options for newly diagnosed disease and the importance of integrating patient preference when planning therapeutic regimens.

Chemotherapy Strategies for Metastatic PDAC
1/13/2025
Guest: Efrat Dotan, MD
Guest: Shubham Pant, MD, MBBS
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, otherwise known as PDAC, is a lethal disease which is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage and has an extremely poor prognosis. Advancements in treatment regimens have improved survival rates, but early diagnosis is crucial for improving outcomes and awareness of risk factors is vital for early diagnosis. Cytotoxic chemotherapy is the cornerstone of treatment for advanced or metastatic cases, although molecularly targeted therapies and immunotherapies may benefit select patients. Treatment selection depends on several factors, including patients' performance status and co-morbidities and these should be considered alongside the efficacy and safety profiles of the different chemotherapy regimens.
This 2-part microlearning provides an overview of the risk factors, diagnostic tools and treatment options available to date for different patient groups.
Complete both modules, answer pre- and post-test questions and start earning CME credits.
