Description: This continuing education course will cover the clinically significant drug–drug interactions (DDIs) associated with oral anticancer therapies. The presentation will cover potential adverse effects of DDIs and examine key interaction pathways, including those involving CYP3A4 inhibitors and inducers, gastric acid–suppressing agents, and medications that prolong the QT interval. Strategies for identifying, preventing, and managing these interactions will be discussed to help ensure patient safety and maintain optimal therapeutic efficacy.
