Statement of Need

Delayed diagnosis of cervical cancer often leads to poor prognosis and lower survival rates, especially in advanced stages. Recent therapeutic advancements, including immune-checkpoint inhibitors and ADCs, offer new hope for managing advanced cervical cancer. However, there are significant gaps in knowledge and practice, especially in the community setting, which increase the risk of suboptimal treatment decisions and missed opportunities to enhance patient outcomes.

In this CE Concepts recorded Grand Rounds, expert faculty examine the evolving treatment landscape for advanced cervical cancer and discuss how they develop individualized treatment plans that apply current guideline recommendations, consider new treatment methods, and respect the unique needs of each patient.

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to better:

  • Evaluate the evolving treatment landscape for advanced cervical cancer, including the use of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), and insights from ongoing clinical trials
  • Develop individualized treatment plans for advanced cervical cancer by applying guideline recommendations and therapy knowledge, considering both clinical and non-clinical patient-specific factors

Financial Support

This program is supported by an independent educational grant from Pfizer Inc.

Target Audience

Community-based gynecologic oncologists, OB/GYNs, physician associates (PAs), pharmacists, nurse practitioners (NPs), and nurses caring for patients with recurrent/metastatic cervical cancer
