Adaptive learning to address gaps in metastatic breast cancer treatment with CDK 4/6 inhibitors.

92 Background: To address identified gaps in knowledge and confidence of US-based healthcare professionals (HCPs) when using cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDK 4/6i) to treat metastatic breast cancer (mBC), an adaptive learning program (ALP) was deployed to review guideline recommendations and evidence from randomized clinical trials (RCTs) and real-world data (RWD). Methods: The ALP consisted of reading materials (guideline excerpts, RCTs, RWD, cases) with a virtual tutor that taught. The ALP continued to review necessary content until responders were both correct and confident (conscious competence). Impact on learning was interpreted as greater for learning objectives with the lowest accuracy score (% of correct responses) and higher distance to 100% conscious competency at baseline. Immediately post-ALP, satisfaction, perceived impact on knowledge, confidence and intent to change practice were assessed quantitatively and qualitatively. ANOVA compared continuous measures by profession. Results: Participants (n=261) were physicians (MD, 17%), advanced practice practitioners (APP, 20%), registered nurses (RN, 49%), pharmacists (11%), and other (3%). Mean completion time was 44 minutes and learners’ proficiency shifted +64% towards conscious competency. The learning objectives most impacted by the education are shown (Table). Learners most satisfied with the ALP (47% with 9-10 on a 10-point satisfaction scale) appreciated the challenge and reported positive impact on their knowledge and confidence, resulting in intent to change their patient-communication, clinical decisions and interprofessional collaboration when using CDK4/6i. Conclusions: This ALP initiative addressed the educational gaps of US HCPs regarding CDK4/6i in HR+/HER2- mBC by challenging participants to re-consider their knowledge and confidence until conscious competency was demonstrated. Engaged learners found the activity impactful and reported intent to change practice. Future studies should seek to address attrition challenges and assess long term impacts of such programs.
