Learning Objectives
After participating in this educational activity, participants should be better able to:
- Identify the various factors that contribute to the recurrence or progression of locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN)
- Evaluate the risks, benefits, and limitations of currently available treatment options for managing patients with locally advanced SCCHN, and develop a comprehensive management plan based on patient-specific factors
- Discuss the mechanisms of action of agents currently under investigation for the treatment of locally advanced SCCHN alongside those of currently available treatment options, and potential implications for patient care
- Assess the therapeutic potential and potential impact on current treatment paradigms of emerging agents being investigated for the management of locally advanced SCCHN
- Compare the definitions, benefits, and limitations of early endpoints used in oncology trials and their relation to patient outcomes
- Describe the evidence, rationale, and clinical significance of early endpoints used in ongoing clinical trials in locally advanced SCCHN
