ForwardNCCN 13th Annual Congress: Hematologic Malignancies™
The treatment of hematologic malignancies is increasingly complex. Issues relating to pathology, transplantation, and various new therapies require oncologists and hematologists to stay abreast of new advances. In addition, targeted therapies and oral treatments bring new benefits to patients.
Target Audience
This educational program is designed to meet the educational needs of oncologists, hematologists, nurses, pharmacists, and other health care professionals who manage patients with hematologic malignancies.
Learning Objectives
Following this program, participants should be able to:
- Summarize the current standards of oncology care and key updates in the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®) and as appropriate integrate these strategies to optimize the management of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), multiple myeloma (MM), myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), leukemia, lymphoma, and plasma cell neoplasms.
- Evaluate new, emerging and novel therapeutic agents, advances in care, and clinical trials data and apply relevant findings into the management of patients with hematologic malignancies.
- Review issues relevant to patients receiving CAR T-cell therapy, bone health and bone-related complications in patients with hematologic malignancies and incorporate appropriate strategies into clinical practice to improve patient outcomes.
A detailed list of learning objectives by session topic is available here.
