This activity is jointly provided by Global Education Group and PlatformQ Health Education, LLC, in collaboration with the American Society of Gene & Cell Therapy (ASGCT).

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

This activity is supported by an educational grant from Bristol Myers Squibb and Janssen Biotech, Inc.

RELEASE/EXPIRATION DATES

March 22nd 2024. Expires March 22nd 2025

TARGET AUDIENCE

The intended audience for this program is hematology-oncologists, myeloma specialists, hematologists, heme-onc pharmacists, and nurses.

STATEMENT OF NEED/PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Standard-of-care frontline therapies do not have durable efficacy, with most patients eventually relapsing. In this setting, the number of therapeutic options for relapsed/refractory MM (RRMM) has expanded leading to improved survival outcomes for people with MM.

Join an expert panel of hematologists/oncologists to discuss how clinicians can apply evidence-based guidelines to care, select the right therapy with the greatest clinical benefit for each patient, and differentiate among potentially practice-changing therapies. Panelists will also discuss how clinicians can remain familiar with the adverse events associated with newer therapy and key aspects of monitoring patients post therapy.

EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES

After completing this activity, the participant should be better able to:
  • Evaluate challenges to providing guideline-concordant care beyond the first-line
  • Review new and emerging data and potentially practice-changing clinical trials in the relapsed-refractory setting
  • Explain how to facilitate better alignment with patients/caregivers on goals of therapy
