Advances in ADT: Part II (2023)
COMPLIMENTARY CME VIRTUAL COURSES!
Advances in ADT: Part II (2023) is a series of educational activities for the urologic care team to further address the identified educational gaps and barriers in advanced prostate cancer care. This educational series has been designed to update urologists and advanced practice providers (APPs) on the latest advancements in androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and prostate cancer treatment. This educational initiative is comprised of multiple formats, including two live virtual courses and on-demand webcasts. These live virtual courses, one designed specifically for urologists and the other for APPs, will feature a multidisciplinary panel, engaging in a lively discussion.
Additionally, the activity developed specifically for urologists will be released as an episode on the very successful AUAUniversity Podcast. For a deeper dive into select topics in ADT and advanced prostate cancer care, the AUA will also produce two additional episodes for release on the AUAUniversity Podcast.
