Oncology Best Practice™:
Working Group to Optimize Outcomes in EGFR-Mutated Lung Cancers: Evolving Concepts for Nurses to Facilitate and Improve Patient Care
The fast pace of developments in the management of patients with non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene has challenged practitioners to maintain state-of-the-art practices with regard to choosing therapy, monitoring for resistance, and discussing adverse event management and adherence to therapy with their patients. Advances in the field will continue to emerge in 2017, and these will create knowledge and/or practice gaps for oncology-focused nurses who strive to optimize care for their patients.
To meet these medical needs, this series of Oncology Best Practice™ will provide oncology nurses and other oncology healthcare professionals who participate in the multidisciplinary treatment of patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC with practical approaches to managing clinical challenges with this group of patients with lung cancer. These 1-hour interactive meetings will feature nationally renowned experts in oncology nursing, who will travel directly to leading cancer centers, large oncology practice groups, and community hospitals throughout the United States.
Key topics to be addressed by faculty include:
Ample discussion time will also allow participants to interact with expert faculty to address challenges they face in their everyday practice.
This educational activity is directed toward nurses and other healthcare professionals with an interest in the treatment of lung cancers.
At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be better prepared to:
