Advanced Prostate Cancer : Managing the Spectrum of Disease (Sep, 2016)

Advanced Prostate Cancer : Managing the Spectrum of Disease is organized by American Urological Association and would be held on Sep 24, 2016 at The Palmer House, Chicago, Illinois, United States of America.

Urologists continue to indicate one of the greatest educational needs in treating (CRPC) Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer patients is the sequencing of agents.With the numerous new treatments now available to urologists to manage the CRPC patient, sequencing and managing the side effects of each treatment have become increasingly important.

This course will provide essential information on Advanced Prostate Cancer, focusing upon a thorough review of the AUA CRPC Guidelines, followed by sequencing of agents, managing side effects of treatments, management of comorbid conditions, and identifying potential interactions between immunosuppressive agents and other medications.

The targeted audience for this medical event is basically for all providers who are involved in the care of CRPC, including urologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, advanced practice providers (e.g. ARNP, PA), and nursing staff. Additionally, trainees who will be involved in CRPC care, such as residents and fellows, will benefit from knowledge that will not only be crucial to their practice but also helpful in the process of certification.
