Target Audience
This educational activity is intended to address the educational needs for cardiologists, oncologists, internists, pharmacists, nurses, and all members of the interprofessional care team who advance the clinical care of, and conduct clinical research that is relevant to, the growing population of cancer patients and survivors at risk for, or suffer from, cardiovascular disease.

Goal
The goal of this course is to equip the global cardio-oncology community with actionable science to advance patient-centered, evidence-based cardiovascular and cancer care.

Learning Objectives

1. Discuss the different types, oncologic indications, and mechanisms of action of conventional and modern cancer therapies, their associated cardiotoxicities, and the risks of developing cardiovascular risk factors and cardiovascular disease.
2. Implement clinical, imaging and biomarker-guideline recommendations regarding risk stratification and monitoring strategies to detect cardiovascular risk in the oncology patient who have been treated with high cardiovascular risk systemic therapies.
3. Apply evidence-based strategies for short- and long-term management of cardiotoxicities in patients with active cancer and survivors who have been treated with high cardiovascular risk systemic therapies.
4. Summarize the evidence behind the role of pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic interventions in the prevention and management of cardiotoxicity.
5. Identify the overlap between cancer and cardiovascular disease, independent of the cardiotoxicity of cancer therapies, such as clonal hematopoiesis, epidemiologic risk factors, and basic mechanisms.
6. Describe the pathophysiologic basis of amyloidosis, as well as diagnostic and treatment strategies.
7. Design an interprofessional cardio-oncology care team and a framework to improve the overall cardiovascular care of cancer patients and survivors.
8. Describe the impact of health disparities, genomic ancestry, and social determinants of health in cardiovascular disease and cancer outcomes.
