On Topic Virtual Roundtable™: Deciphering the Decisions in Newly Diagnosed Advanced Ovarian Cancer
StartActivity Details
Expires: October 7, 2022
Jointly Provided By
The Postgraduate Institute for Medicine and Bio Ascend
Target Audience
The target audience for this activity is community and academic medical oncologists, gynecologic oncologists, surgical oncologists, obstetricians and gynecologists, advanced practitioners (NP/PA/PharmD), and other clinicians who treat patients with ovarian cancer.
Learning Objectives
After participating in this activity, participants should be better able to:
- Select genetic testing for patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer
- Utilize clinical features and genetic information to plan treatment for patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer
- Compare and contrast current and emerging treatment strategies for patients with newly diagnosed ovarian cancer
- Manage adverse events associated with maintenance therapy for patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer
Activity Description
On Topic Virtual Roundtable™: Deciphering the Decisions in Newly Diagnosed Advanced Ovarian Cancer aims to focus on critical care decisions for patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer. This activity will also provide a unique take by including the patient voice as part of the discussion. You’ll hear directly from a patient living with ovarian cancer who will share her experience along with important information she feels physicians should know when caring for these patients.
Statement of Educational Need
Ovarian neoplasms, consisting mostly of epithelial ovarian cancer (~90%), is the leading cause of death from gynecologic cancer in the United States. Improved outcomes from multiple phase 3 studies have shifted the treatment paradigm for patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer. This progress brings new challenges, which force HCPs to make critical decisions that require extensive knowledge and careful thought. This program will help clinicians make those critical decisions leading to improved care for patients with this challenging disease.
