Learning Activity: From a Maze to Amazed! Navigating breast cancer therapies and treatment toxicities in family practice
Family Physicians are playing an increasingly important role in the care of patients with breast cancer throughout their cancer journeys and beyond. Breast cancer treatment strategies continue to evolve rapidly. Oral agents are standard of care options for both early-stage and metastatic hormone-sensitive breast cancer. Early recognition and management of drug-related toxicities are imperative for optimizing breast cancer outcomes. This program aims to review general breast cancer treatment strategies, with a focus on oral agents, and will explore the management of toxicities that may be encountered in family practice.
