Monthly Oncology Tumor Boards: A Multidisciplinary Approach to Individualized Patient Care - Prostate Cancer

July 31, 2020

Optimizing Care and Managing Side Effects in Prostate Cancer
Clinicians need up-to-date information on when and how to use molecular assays to inform individual patient risk, so that men with localized prostate cancer can receive optimal treatment while avoiding unnecessary treatment and side effects. In addition, clinicians must be knowledgeable about the side effects of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and management options for these side effects. Finally, clinicians must be aware of results of recent clinical trials in the non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) setting, so that patients can receive optimal care and delay the onset of metastases as long as possible.

Target Audience

This educational program is designed to meet the educational needs of physicians/oncologists, nurse practitioners, nurses, physician assistants, pharmacists, and other health care professionals who manage patients with cancer.

Learning Objectives

Following this activity, participants should be able to:

  • Identify patients with localized prostate cancer for whom molecular profiling may inform treatment decisions. 
  • Recognize and manage the side effects of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). 
  • Apply the results of recent clinical trials in the non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) setting to optimize patient care.

NCCN Medical Education Disclosure Policy
It is the policy of NCCN that every 12 months, all faculty, moderators, activity planners and all internal planning staff participating in NCCN continuing education activities are expected to disclose any financial relationships with a commercial interest as defined by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) Standards for Commercial Support. In addition, all faculty presentations have been reviewed for adherence to the ACCME’s Standards for Commercial Support (the provider develops activities/educational interventions independent of commercial interests [SCS 1, 2 and 6] by experts on the topics). 

Per the ACCME Standards for Commercial Support, individuals who do not disclose relevant financial relationships will be disqualified from involvement in the CE activity as a content developer, planner, or presenter. A complete list of individuals’ relationships with external entities is available upon request.

Definitions  
NCCN continuing education considers financial relationships to create a “conflict of interest” when an individual has both a financial relationship with a commercial interest and the opportunity to affect CE content about the products or services of a commercial interest with which he/she and/or a spouse or partner has a financial relationship.

NCCN continuing education considers “relevant financial relationships” as financial relationships in any amount occurring within the past 12 months that create a conflict of interest. NCCN does 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. 

Faculty Disclaimers  
All faculty for this continuing education activity are competent in the subject matter and qualified by experience, training, and/or preparation for the tasks and methods of delivery.

Faculty presentations may include discussion of off-label use. Faculty will disclose that the use in question is not currently approved by the FDA per the product labeling.
