Community Practice Connections™: Bridging Unmet Needs With Emerging Data in Relapsed/Refractory DLBCL to Improve Patient Outcomes
Release Date: January 29, 2021
Expiration Date: January 29, 2022
Activity Overview
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is one of the most common forms of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), accounting for approximately 30% of cases. The treatment landscape of DLBCL is evolving rapidly, particularly for patients with relapsed/refractory disease, with the recent addition of several new active agents to the armamentarium, and numerous other promising therapies in late-stage clinical development. Further, advances in understanding the underlying biology of DLBCL are resulting in more refined biomarker characterization for enhanced risk assessment and individualization of treatment. Clinicians must be aware of these changes and how to integrate them into their practices in order to optimize outcomes for their patients with DLBCL.
This Community Practice Connection™ program provides an in-depth review of some of the key highlights from the Medical Crossfire® Bridging Unmet Needs With Emerging Data in Relapsed/Refractory DLBCL to Improve Patient Outcomes satellite symposium, held in December 2020. This unique and engaging multi-media activity is directed towards the community-based clinician and focuses on the practical aspects of managing patients with DLBCL, putting recent clinical trial data into clinical context. The program is designed for those who did not attend the live meeting and to help reinforce learnings for those who did.

Target Audience
This educational activity is directed toward medical oncologists/hematologists, nurse practitioners, nurses, and fellows who treat patients with DLBCL. Physician assistants, pharmacists, researchers, and other health care professionals interested in the treatment of DLBCL are invited to participate.
Learning Objectives
Upon successful completion of this activity, you should be better prepared to:
- Determine state-of-the-art diagnostic approaches that should be utilized to stratify risk and monitor treatment response in multiple lines of care among patients with DLBCL
- Describe recent landmark evidence in the setting of relapsed/refractory DLBCL and how new strategies can be practically applied to clinical practices
- Apply methods to monitor for and mitigate the impact of treatment-related toxicities among patients who are managed for DLBCL
- Evaluate next steps in the field to address unmet clinical needs in DLBCL management, including recent evidence and ongoing clinical trials evaluating novel approaches in multiple lines of care
