Cases and Conversations – Evolving Radiation Strategies in HER2-Positive Breast Cancer: Early-Stage Through Metastatic Disease

Location: Westin Boston Seaport District
Harbor Ballroom I
425 Summer Street
Boston, MA 02210

CME Credits: Physicians’ Education Resource®, LLC designates this live activity for a maximum of 1.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ and 1.5 contact hours for nurses. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Target Audience: This educational activity is directed toward ASTRO congress attendees, including an audience of radiation oncologists, medical and surgical oncologists, advanced practice providers, nurses, and other healthcare professionals managing HER2-positive breast cancer.

Learning Objectives: Upon completion, learners will be better able to:

  • Evaluate the safety profile of concurrent and sequential radiation therapy with T-DXd, including strategies to distinguish drug-related ILD from radiation pneumonitis.
  • Develop a radiation treatment plan that accounts for the overlapping pulmonary and cardiac toxicity risks of ADC-based systemic therapy in HER2-positive breast cancer.
  • Assess the implications of recent and emerging clinical trial data for the role of radiation therapy in early-stage and metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer.
  • Apply a multidisciplinary framework to integrate systemic and local therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer with brain metastases.

Program Agenda:
