Archived Monthly Oncology Tumor Boards: A Multidisciplinary Approach to Individualized Patient Care - Metastatic Prostate Cancer
Join Sandy Srinivas, MD and Alexey Aleshin, MD, MBA from Stanford Cancer Institute as they present their expertise on a range of cases pertaining to metastatic prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and second-leading cause of cancer death in men. Many therapeutic options exist for patients with metastatic prostate cancer. Clinicians need to be knowledgeable about all of the options to be able to effectively evaluate their appropriateness for each patient and discuss the possible risks and benefits with patients. Such knowledge allows for informed, shared decision making, which can enable patients to receive optimal care that maximizes their survival while taking into account their values and preferences.
Target Audience
This educational program is designed to meet the educational needs of oncologists, pathologists, nurses, pharmacists, case managers, and other health care professionals who manage patients with cancer.
Learning Objectives
Following this activity, participants should be able to:
- Assess the criteria used to select appropriate treatment options for patients with metastatic prostate cancer.
- Contrast the risks and benefits of different treatment options and possible sequences of therapies for patients with metastatic prostate cancer.
- Discuss treatment options with patients to inform decision-making.

The ACCME/ANCC/ACPE defines “conflict of interest” as when an individual has an opportunity to affect CE content about products or services of a commercial interest with which he/she has a financial relationship.
ACCME, ACPE, and ANCC focuses on financial relationships with commercial interests in the 12-month period preceding the time that the individual is being asked to assume a role controlling content of the CE activity. ACCME, ACPE, and ANCC have not set a minimal dollar amount for relationships to be significant. Inherent in any amount is the incentive to maintain or increase the value of the relationship. The ACCME, ACPE, and ANCC defines “relevant’ financial relationships” as financial relationships in any amount occurring within the past 12 months that create a conflict of interest.
All faculty for this continuing education activity are competent in the subject matter and qualified by experience, training, and/or preparation to the tasks and methods of delivery.
