Target Audience 

Neurologists, nurse practitioners, nurses, physician assistants, pharmacists, and other healthcare professionals involved in the management of patients with multiple sclerosis

Program Overview 

This interactive CME/CE program will highlight the important emerging role of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors as the first brain penetrant disease modifying therapy that offers opportunities to improve neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. The expert faculty, led by Fred D. Lublin, MD, will first provide an overview of the BTK inhibitor science. Following, current clinical trial data regarding the safety and efficacy of BTK inhibitors will be analyzed, along with the clinical implications for the multiple sclerosis patient. The faculty will conclude with a discussion of best practices for shared decision making from an interprofessional perspective to improve patient outcomes and quality of life.
