ForwardProstate Cancer Management Simulator
Many factors influence treatment selection for patients with prostate cancer. These factors can include, but are not limited to, risk stratification strategies, appropriate treatment options for patients with non-metastatic recurrence after maximal pelvic-directed therapy, considerations for selecting treatments for patients with metastatic castration-sensitive and metastatic castration-resistant disease, and supportive care needs to optimize care. The NCCN Guidelines for Prostate Cancer have been updated to reflect advances in the comprehensive care of patients with prostate cancer. It is important for you to be aware of new and emerging options so you can develop individualized treatment plans for your patients.
The goal of this educational activity is to ensure that members of the interprofessional oncology care team have the knowledge and skills necessary to care for their patients with prostate cancer. By working through a series of realistic case scenarios, you will experience how to manage a variety of prostate cancer presentations over time. As you make decisions, you will receive expert corrective mentoring from virtual colleagues to help you recognize optimal decision-making patterns.
Target Audience
This program is designed to meet the educational needs of physicians/oncologists, nurse practitioners, nurses, physician associates, pharmacists, and other relevant health care professionals who care for patients with prostate cancer.
Learning Objectives
Following this activity, participants should be able to:
- Explain strategies to refine risk stratification in appropriate patients with localized prostate cancer.
- Discuss considerations for treatment selection across the spectrum of prostate cancer disease states.
- Describe common supportive care needs and approaches for patients with prostate cancer.
- Apply the current recommendations and key updates in the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®) to optimize the care of patients with prostate cancer.
- Evaluate new, emerging, and novel therapeutic agents and treatment strategies and incorporate these into the treatment of patients with prostate cancer.
- Communicate with members of the interprofessional oncology care team to improve collaborative performance in the care of patients with prostate cancer.
