Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) treatment options and management strategies are evolving, and the multiplicity of near- and long-term clinical manifestations makes diagnosis and management of the disease complex. The development of plexiform neurofibromas (PNs) further negatively impacts patients’ clinical outcomes and quality of life. These challenges necessitate an integrated, longitudinal management approach that encompasses the totality of the interprofessional, multidisciplinary team of clinicians in pediatric and adult care settings.
In this CEC Oncology livestream, case-based symposium, expert faculty will discuss diagnosis and disease challenges over a person’s lifespan; explore the integration of MEK inhibitors in the management of NF1-associated PNs in pediatric patients; and consider comprehensive interprofessional care plans that include disease monitoring, toxicity management, and individualizing disease treatment across the patient’s lifespan.
At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to better:
