Activity Overview
Oncology nurses are pivotal members of health care teams in managing new and complex therapies. Their role in patient monitoring, education, and intervention is essential for achieving successful treatment outcomes with antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Nurses are uniquely positioned to identify early signs of toxicities, educate patients on possible adverse events, and help mitigate those risks via early medical intervention.
However, many nurses have not received comprehensive education on the relevant biomarkers of ADCs, their mechanisms of action, and the management of adverse events. Given the rapid introduction of ADCs into the clinical landscape, it is critical to address these gaps through continuing education programs. This educational symposium, targeted at oncology nurses, will help bridge these gaps, enabling nurses to provide better patient care and improve clinical outcomes.
