Optimizing the Use and Safety of ADCs in Metastatic Breast Cancer: Indications, Toxicity Profiles, and Proactive Management
As part of this performance and quality improvement initiative, Reshma L. Mahtani, D.O. reviews the latest clinical evidence, guideline recommendations, and emerging strategies to support the coordinated care of patients receiving antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Through expert-led presentations and case-based discussions, participants will explore approaches to optimizing ADC utilization across the continuum of care.
Healthcare professionals will gain practical strategies to improve interdisciplinary collaboration, recognize and manage ADC-related adverse events, and support timely interventions that enhance patient safety and treatment outcomes. This activity is designed to equip clinicians with actionable knowledge that can be applied directly in practice to deliver high-quality, patient-centered care for individuals receiving—or being considered for—ADC therapy.
