Managing Nonadvanced Systemic Mastocytosis

Prefer to participate in person? Register for our live program at www.ExchangeCME.com/SMSanDiegoLive.

Program Description

Nonadvanced systemic mastocytosis (SM) is characterized by the accumulation of mast cells in extracutaneous organs, with or without skin involvement. This disorder is difficult to diagnose and manage due to the wide variety of symptoms, anaphylactic triggers, and complicated treatment paradigm that requires individualization based on each patient’s presentation. Join us for an engaging Expert Roundtable discussion to gain multidisciplinary insights into diagnosis and management strategies for nonadvanced SM and learn about invaluable patient resources that are available.

Target Audience

This activity is designed to educate a primary audience of clinical immunologists, allergists, dermatologists, and other attendees who manage patients with nonadvanced SM.

Educational Objectives

1. Explain the underlying pathophysiology of nonadvanced SM, including the effects of driver mutations on mast cell (MC) hyperactivation and the rationale for new targeted therapies\
2. Use World Health Organization (WHO) criteria to differentially diagnose nonadvanced SM and classify subtype based on symptoms, biomarkers, and genetic testing results
3. Describe recent clinical trial evidence for new and emerging targeted treatment options, including FDA-approved therapies
4. Create individualized treatment plans reflecting clinical evidence for treatment efficacy and safety, patient-reported outcomes, and shared decision-making
5. Educate patients with nonadvanced SM on support resources available, including those provided by The Mast Cell Disease Society (TMS)
