This study aimed to revisit the data collected in the scope of this project to identify remaining challenges in ensuring equitable cancer care is delivered to all patients, with underlying gaps in knowledge, confidence and attitude that may be addressed through future CME. </p></div></div><div class="elementor-element elementor-element-3437506 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="3437506" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"><div class="elementor-widget-container"><p><strong>Methods</strong>:<br />A secondary analysis of data was performed on quantitative (case-based multiple-choice) responses collected from US-based HCPs who completed at least one of the five accredited CME activities that were part of the program titled “Addressing Racial Disparities in Cancer Care”. Questions assessed learners’ knowledge, confidence, and attitudes after exposure to the CME. Crosstabulations with chi-square statistical tests compared quantitative responses by sub-group. The analysis focused on post-CME data to identify remaining educational gaps, with the aim of informing the development of future CME programs.</p></div></div><div class="elementor-element elementor-element-78db450 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="78db450" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"><div class="elementor-widget-container"><p><strong>Results:</strong><br/>The five-part CME education reached 1151 unique HCPs involved in cancer care, with activity participation varying between n=103 to n=433. The profession/specialty sub-group most represented in aggregated responses across the five-part CME were registered nurses specialized in hematology/oncology (n=575/1145, 50%). Across US regions, respondents were mostly located in South US (n=446/1150, 39%). A challenge in helping patients navigate socio-economic barriers to oncology care was found, with the following four related gaps affecting a portion of respondents post-CME exposure: 1) misconception that the most important determinant of treatment adherence is a patient’s perceived treatment efficacy rather than optimal patient-provider communication (n=57/400, 14%), 2) sub-optimal knowledge of the impact of a patient’s community and/or partner on influencing their treatment-seeking behavior (n=31/97, 32%), 3) sub-optimal knowledge of necessary steps to address the root cause of a patients’ missed appointments (n=36/227, 16%), 4) sub-optimal confidence in addressing a patients’ personal circumstances limiting their access to cancer-care (n=424/1151, 37%).</p></div></div><div class="elementor-element elementor-element-1a14144 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="1a14144" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"><div class="elementor-widget-container"><p><strong>Conclusions</strong>:<br/>This study identified remaining gaps in knowledge, confidence and attitude among US-based HCPs post-exposure to a CME activity aimed at promoting equitable cancer care. Considering these gaps were observed post-education, the actual proportion of US-based HCPs affected is likely underestimated. Future continuing learning initiatives aimed at addressing cancer care disparities in the US should consider targeting gaps identified in this study by challenging learners to re-consider their knowledge, beliefs and confidence in best approaches to navigating the socio-economic barriers hindering patients from seeking cancer care (e.g., via adaptive learning, peer-to-peer learning).</p></div></div></div></div><div class="elementor-element elementor-element-9f3eafc e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent" data-id="9f3eafc" data-element_type="container"><div class="e-con-inner"><div class="elementor-element elementor-element-6d57cdb elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer" data-id="6d57cdb" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="spacer.default"><div class="elementor-widget-container"><div class="elementor-spacer"><div class="elementor-spacer-inner"></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="elementor-element elementor-element-efee166 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent" data-id="efee166" data-element_type="container"><div class="e-con-inner"><div class="elementor-element elementor-element-bcbe370 elementor-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-button" data-id="bcbe370" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="button.default"><div class="elementor-widget-container"><div class="elementor-button-wrapper"> <a class="elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm" href="/addressing-racial-disparities-in-cancer-care/"> <span class="elementor-button-content-wrapper"> <span class="elementor-button-text">Return to Racial Disparities</span> </span> </a></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></article></div></div></div></div></section><div class="footer_pro"><div class="container"><div class="row"><div class="col-sm-8"><section id="custom_html-31" class="widget_text widget widget_custom_html"><div class="textwidget custom-html-widget"><a href="https://academic.oup.com/oncolo" target="_blank"><img src= "https://sto-online.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/TO-300-trans.png" width="200"/></a><div style="font-size:80%"> The official journal of the Society for Translational Oncology</div></div></section><section id="custom_html-22" class="widget_text widget widget_custom_html"><div class="textwidget custom-html-widget"><div style="font-size:90%">Society for Translational Oncology (STO) is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization.<br /><a href="/privacy">Privacy Policy</a> | <a href="/terms">Terms of Use</a> | <a href="/contact">Contact Us</a></div></div></section></div><div class="col-sm-4"><section id="custom_html-21" class="widget_text widget widget_custom_html"><div class="textwidget custom-html-widget"><div style="font-size:80%"><img src="/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/ACCME-accredited-provider-full-color-239x300.png" align="right" width="50"/>The Society for Translational Oncology is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.</div></div></section><section id="zoom-social-icons-widget-3" class="widget zoom-social-icons-widget"><ul class="zoom-social-icons-list zoom-social-icons-list--with-canvas zoom-social-icons-list--round zoom-social-icons-list--align-left zoom-social-icons-list--no-labels"><li class="zoom-social_icons-list__item"> <a class="zoom-social_icons-list__link" href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/society-for-translational-oncology/" target="_blank" title="" > <span class="screen-reader-text">linkedin</span> <span class="zoom-social_icons-list-span social-icon socicon socicon-linkedin" data-hover-rule="background-color" data-hover-color="#2a648a" style="background-color : #2a648a;
