    A Changing Approach to TNBC Management: Patients as Partners in Care

    Jointly provided by Partners for Advancing Clinical Education (PACE) and PlatformQ Health Education, LLC, in collaboration with the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

    ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

    This activity has been supported by an independent educational grant from Gilead Sciences, Inc.

    DATE OF RELEASE/EXPIRATION

    This activity was released on June 29, 2023 and is valid until June 29, 2024. Requests for credit must be made no later than June 29, 2024.

    TARGET AUDIENCE

    The educational design of this activity addresses the needs of medical oncologists, pathologists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, and other HCPs managing patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).

    STATEMENT OF NEED/PROGRAM OVERVIEW

    Despite recent advances, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains difficult to treat due to a poor prognosis and a small number of effective treatments. Thus, clinicians’ priorities need to be aligned with patient goals and perspectives to ensure optimal care and overcome patient misunderstandings about treatment and clinical-trial options.

    Join an expert panel of oncologists and oncology nurse practitioners for an in-depth discussion of patient-centered care practices for TNBC that incorporate and align with patient preferences for treatment. Panelists will also discuss effective strategies for TNBC management and appropriate incorporation of novel therapies into treatment regimens. Do you have patients who have been diagnosed with TNBC who could use education on treatment options, clinical trials, and available support resources? Direct your patients to MedLive.com to access the activity, “Navigating Treatment and Support for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.”

    Addressing Disparities in Care and Integrating Antibody-Drug Conjugates as Treatment for Patients with Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC)

    ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

    DATE OF LIVE ACTIVITY

    Friday, April 22, 2022 from 12:00 – 1:00pm ET

    TARGET AUDIENCE

    The educational design of this activity addresses the needs of medical oncologists, pathologists, pharmacists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, and other HCPs managing patients with TNBC.

    STATEMENT OF NEED/PROGRAM OVERVIEW

    Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive form of breast cancer, disproportionally affecting young Black women. In addition, women from racial minorities tend to be diagnosed at a more advanced stage and experience higher rates of TNBC-related mortality. While standard chemotherapy has a high rate of failure in patients with TNBC, first-in-class targeted therapies offer hope of a more effective treatment for patients.

    Join a distinguished panel of expert oncologists to explore how disparities in care negatively affect racial minority patients with TNBC, and the necessary steps healthcare professionals can take to address these inequities. Panelists will discuss how health care professionals can formulate plans to screen and diagnose these patients earlier and include genetic counselors on care teams to support patients after diagnosis. Experts will also review the evolving TNBC treatment landscape, the safety and efficacy of the newly approved anti-TROP-2, and additional agents under investigation.

    Can your patients benefit from related education on the recognition and treatment of TNBC? Direct your patients to CancerCoachLive.com to access the patient-education activity, “Facing TNBC: Self-Advocacy and Decision-making.”

    EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES

    After completing this activity, the participant should be better able to:
    • Discuss solutions to address disparities in care for women of ethnic minorities diagnosed with TNBC
    • Review recent advances in TNBC pathogenesis and prognosis
    • Coordinate referrals to genetic testing and counseling
    • Evaluate the mechanisms of action and safety and efficacy data for current and emerging TNBC agents
    • Facilitate patient-centered care through accounts of real-world patient experiences
