Target Audience
This activity is designed specifically for oncologists, advanced practice providers, and other members of the healthcare team who serve patients from rural and underserved communities.
Program Overview
Unlike most other cancers, the incidence and mortality of endometrial cancer are on the rise in the United States. Patients with endometrial cancer who reside in rural and underserved communities often have reduced access to gynecologic oncologist services and suboptimal surgical evaluation, thus compromising their prognosis. In this activity, expert faculty will review the latest treatment advances for advanced endometrial cancer in the frontline and subsequent line settings, including use of immunotherapy and the important role of molecular and biomarker testing. Multidisciplinary strategies to improve patient-centered care and outcomes in rural and underserved populations will also be discussed.
This enduring activity is a recorded session from Oncology Congress that took place on December 2, 2023.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:
- Summarize the latest clinical trial data on the efficacy and safety of novel therapies for advanced endometrial cancer in both the frontline and subsequent line treatment settings
- Apply current guideline recommendations and clinical trial data to tailor treatment selection for patients with advanced endometrial cancer, in both the frontline and subsequent line treatment settings
- Determine appropriate molecular and biomarker testing for patients with advanced endometrial cancer
- Implement multidisciplinary strategies for improving patient-centered endometrial cancer care in rural and underserved communities
