PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Through this virtual preceptorship program, learners will evaluate current and emerging applications of bispecific antibodies in the management of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, as informed by the latest data. With multiple novel bispecific antibodies targeting CD20 on malignant B cells and CD3 on immune effector T cells, there is an increasing need for awareness of the efficacy, safety, and best practices for use of these therapies in relapsed and refractory forms of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. In addition to recognizing clinical data and mechanisms, this program discusses potential adverse events associated with bispecific antibody therapies and best practices for their monitoring and management. This unique program enables clinicians to understand the design, mechanisms, and safety and efficacy data informing the integration of bispecific antibodies in management of non-Hodgkin lymphomas.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Assess the latest approaches to use of novel bispecific antibody therapies for NHL
- Summarize current clinical data in NHL management in consideration of outcomes with bispecific antibody therapies
