Chief, Division of Breast Oncology, Susan F. Smith Center for Women's Cancers
Associate Director, Susan F. Smith Center for Women's Cancers
Associate Professor of Medicine, Dana Farber Cancer Institute
Dr. Tolaney received her undergraduate degree from Princeton University in 1998 and her medical degree from UC San Francisco in 2002. She subsequently completed her residency in Internal Medicine at Johns Hopkins University, and fellowships in hematology and medical oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. She obtained a Masters in Public Health from the Harvard School of Public Health in 2007. In 2008, she joined the staff of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Brigham and Women's Hospital, where she serves as Chief of the Division of Breast Oncology. She is a breast medical oncologist whose research focuses on the development of novel therapies in the treatment of breast cancer. She has been instrumental in developing several treatment approaches for breast cancer, including approaches focused on tailoring therapy for early stage HER2+ disease, use of CDK 4/6 inhibitors, antibody drug conjugates, and immunotherapy.David B. Page, MD
Medical Oncologist
Clinical Investigator
Providence Cancer Institute
Dr. David Page is a medical oncologist and clinical investigator at the Providence Cancer Institute in Portland, Oregon. His area of expertise is in the field of breast cancer immunotherapy.
He completed a Bachelor’s of the Arts at the University of Chicago, a medical doctorate at Northwestern University, followed by internal medicine residency at Columbia University / New York Presbyterian and medical oncology fellowship at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City.
He has conducted and published outcomes of numerous investigator-initiated trials, including trials combining immune checkpoint blockade with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and novel targeted/immune therapies in breast cancer, both in the curative and metastatic setting. He also has served on various immunotherapy-related committees, including the NCI Breast Immuno-oncology task force, the SITC Breast Immunotherapy expert panel, and the SITC multispectral immunofluorescence working group.

TITLE: Advancements in ADC Therapy for Metastatic Triple Negative and HER+/HER2- Breast Cancer Treatment
Release Date: December 23, 2024
Expiration Date: December 23, 2025
STATEMENT OF NEED
Breast cancer continues to be a leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally, with HER2-positive, HER2-low, and triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC) presenting unique challenges. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are transforming the treatment landscape, offering targeted therapy options that improve efficacy while reducing systemic toxicity. Despite these advancements, many HCPs face challenges in understanding how to incorporate ADCs into clinical practice, including selecting the right patients, sequencing treatments, and managing side effects. This curriculum is designed to close those gaps, equipping participants with the latest evidence and practical tools to optimize care for patients with these challenging breast cancer subtypes.
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
- APPLY data from recent clinical trials using ADCs in the treatment of TNBC to sequencing strategies in patient care
- OPTIMIZE treatments for patients with HR+/HER2- breast cancer using data from recent clinical trials of ADCs
- DEVELOP a plan to monitor for and manage AEs in patients with breast cancer treated with ADCs, in order to avoid interruptions in care
TARGET AUDIENCE:
This educational initiative is intended for medical oncologists and oncology nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician associates (PAs) who care for patients with breast cancer.
