TARGET AUDIENCE

The primary target audiences for the HCP activity are medical oncologists, urologists, pharmacists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, and other HCPs managing patients with UC.

STATEMENT OF NEED/PROGRAM OVERVIEW

A deeper understanding of the pathophysiology of urothelial carcinoma (UC) has revealed targetable biomarkers, while recent advancements in precision medicine, such as antibody-drug conjugates, promise to improve long-term survival in patients with advanced disease. Clinicians can help facilitate the integration of these therapies into practice in effort to optimize outcomes for patients who do not respond to initial therapy.

Join a panel of expert oncologists and urologists for an in-depth discussion of evidence-based approaches to managing advanced UC, including the detection of disease recurrence, treatment selection for metastatic disease refractory to chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy, and the importance of multidisciplinary care. Panelists will review the data on emerging therapies that have shown promise in difficult-to-treat patient populations with advanced UC and describe real-world patient experiences and strategies to improve care.

Do you have patients who could benefit from related education on the management of UC and associated side effects? Direct your patients to CancerCoachLive.com to access the related patient-education activity, “Are There Treatment Options for Advanced Urothelial Cancer?”

EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES

After completing this activity, the participant should be better able to:

• Review characteristics that guide treatment selection in the second-line setting and beyond for patients with advanced UC
• Evaluate clinical-trial efficacy and safety data for emerging agents that target disease progression in patients with advanced UC
• Discuss multidisciplinary team roles/responsibilities for efficient transition of care
