The ABCs of ADCs

 
 

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) represent a novel and exciting  new treatment option for cancer. However, there are side effects that must be  discussed, including ocular side effects. This course discusses the mechanism of  action of ocular side effects of these drugs. We will review the common complaints,  proper diagnostic work up, common treatments, and typical follow up schedule. We  will also discuss what to report to the oncologist or hematologist so that eye care professionals can collaborate in patient care. Several case reports are presented.

Over 600 attended our event and we received amazing feedback!
