Activity Rationale and Purpose
Managing the patient with multiple myeloma (MM) across the continuum of care is challenging given the heterogeneity of the population, the older age of most patients with MM, and the rapidly changing treatment landscape. Many practices in the community or rural settings see relatively few MM patients. This supplement to JADPRO will provide the advanced practitioner in oncology and other oncology professionals with state-of-the-science information they need to effectively manage the patient with MM.
Intended Audience
The activity’s target audience will consist of nurse practitioners, physician assistants, clinical nurse specialists, advanced degree nurses, oncology and hematology nurses, pharmacists, and physicians.
Learning Objectives
After completing this educational activity, participants should be able to:
1. Describe the significance of minimal residual disease, continuous treatment, and sequencing of treatment relative to improving long-term outcomes for patients with multiple myeloma (MM)
2. Integrate palliative and supportive care strategies throughout the MM continuum of care
3. Identify clinical tools for support of the advanced practitioner in the clinical management of MM
4. Articulate key aspects of the updated International Myeloma Working Group guidelines for diagnosis and monitoring of MM
5. Differentiate the various stages of MM with recommended approaches to treatment
6. Apply the principle of adherence, persistence, and treatment fatigue to the care of MM patients and their caregivers
7. Incorporate risk-adapted treatment strategies into the treatment of MM across the continuum of care
8. Identify the key aspects of efficacy and safety, including drug-drug, drug-food interactions, and recommendations for dose modification, for new agents in the treatment of MM, including monoclonal antibodies and oral agents
