Hundreds of thousands of organ transplant recipients living in the United States, who must take immunosuppressive medication, are at an increased risk of COVID-19 infection. Tixagevimab co-packaged with cilgavimab has lost its emergency use authorization as prevention for immunocompromised patients because of its lack of efficacy against newer variants. In the absence of prevention agents (other than vaccines) and because the prevention of COVID-19 is shifting to a more personalized, patient-specific approach, the complexity of clinical decision-making has increased. Additionally, patients may face barriers in obtaining COVID-19 prevention. In this activity, based on a recent live symposium, expert faculty and a patient advocate discuss strategies to improve the uptake of COVID-19 prevention and increase patient and clinician engagement and how to develop a plan to customize COVID-19 prevention at point of care for patients needing prevention. In addition, they look at creating strategies for patients in order to help in overcoming real-time barriers. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Improve the uptake of COVID-19 prevention and increase patient and clinician engagement in following science-based evidence; Develop a plan to customize COVID-19 prevention at point of care for patients needing protection against the virus using evidence-based recommendations and guidelines; and Facilitate patient access to needed COVID-19 prevention by creating strategies to overcome real-time barriers.

Despite the availability of testing, vaccines, and treatments, COVID-19 remains a threat—no one can predict when a new strain might surface and many questions remain. The virus that causes COVID-19 is designated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and the clinical spectrum of SARS-CoV-2 infection ranges from asymptomatic to critical and fatal illness. Most symptomatic infections are mild; however, a significant number of patients have severe disease requiring hospitalization. Hospitalization and death are more likely in high-risk populations, including older people, individuals with underlying medical problems, and those affected by systemic health and social inequities (ie, minorities, immigrant populations, people of low socioeconomic status, and the disabled). Therapies such as antiviral agents and monoclonal antibodies are available in the United States and Europe for the treatment of COVID-19; however, there are challenges with determining which hospitalized patients may be best suited for which treatment. In this activity, based on a recent live web broadcast, a panel of experts explores strategies to improve outcomes for COVID-19 in the hospital setting, with a focus on designing individualized treatment plans based on current guidelines, evolving evidence, and patient-specific factors. The panel also discusses how differences in drug access and treatment protocols impact the healthcare team in regards to providing individualized treatment programs for patients hospitalized with COVID-19. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Assess patients with COVID-19 to make appropriate treatment recommendations based on disease severity; Differentiate therapies for COVID-19 based on the latest safety and efficacy data from clinical trials; Collaborate with the healthcare team to design timely and individualized treatment plans for hospitalized patients with COVID-19 disease based on current guidelines, evolving evidence, and patient-specific factors; and Discuss the clinical implications of prolonged/persistent viral replication in severe COVID-19

It is estimated that there are about 1 million adults in the United States who identify as transgender, and this number may be higher depending on the surveys used, the questions asked, and the diversity of subcultures within the transgender community. Although being transgender is not in itself a medical condition, transgender individuals have unique healthcare needs and face barriers to screening and preventive care, particularly with cancer screening. Consequently, these patients may receive lower quality medical care than the general population as a result of stigma, discrimination, and providers' lack of knowledge about gender identity. Additionally, transgender patients may only seek medical care as part of gender affirmation and avoid primary care health concerns, including screenings. This activity, based on a recent live web broadcast, will focus on improving cancer prevention and early detection strategies in the transgender community, as well as enhancing the knowledge and competence of interdisciplinary and interprofessional healthcare providers to appropriately deliver culturally competent care. An interdisciplinary panel of recognized clinical experts will offer learners tactics to improve disease prevention in transgender patients, while the patient advocate will provide the transgender patient perspective throughout the program. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Recognize that transgender individuals may be disproportionately at increased risk for contracting HIV and those living with HIV have an increased risk of several types of cancers, Properly screen for and identify cancer in a timely manner to prevent advanced disease in the transgender community, Develop individualized preventive care plans for transgender patients consistent with the patient's current anatomical structure, Provide affirming, inclusive, and culturally humble care to transgender patients to facilitate adherence to clinical recommendations and engagement in care.

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a leading opportunistic infection in immunocompromised patients, including allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) recipients, where primary infection or reactivation is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Antiviral drugs are the mainstay for the prevention of CMV infection and disease, most commonly with valganciclovir. However, valganciclovir use is often associated with adverse drug reactions, most notably leukopenia and neutropenia, and its widespread use has led to the emergence of antiviral resistance. Foscarnet and cidofovir, however, are associated with nephrotoxicity. After many years of few tangible advances, we are now experiencing an exciting period characterized by novel antiviral agents for CMV. Indeed, letermovir was recently approved for CMV prophylaxis in allogeneic HCT recipients, and data suggest that maribavir has the potential to address the unmet need of treating relapsed or resistant CMV infections. In this activity, based on a live symposium, experts offer insight into managing CMV in HCT recipients in a new era of antiviral therapy. Foundational guidance is combined with a discussion of real cases. Hear about best practices in preventing CMV infection in patients undergoing HCT, as well as the potential role of novel antiviral therapies in resistant/refractory CMV. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Discuss the burden of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection among hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) recipients, Assess the latest clinical trial data regarding novel strategies to prevent and treat CMV infection in the HCT setting, Employ strategies to prevent and treat CMV infection in individual HCT recipients, considering current evidence, expert recommendations, and clinical trial enrollment for appropriate patients.

No single prevention method or approach can stop the HIV epidemic on its own. Several interventions have proved highly effective in reducing the risk of, and protecting against, HIV infection, including male and female condoms, the use of antiretroviral medicines as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), and the treatment of people living with HIV, to reduce viral load and prevent onward transmission. Despite the availability of this widening array of effective HIV prevention tools and a massive scale-up of HIV treatment in recent years, new infections among adults globally have not decreased sufficiently, and infections have actually increased in the United States among African American gay and bisexual men and Hispanic/Latino gay and bisexual men. Although the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued clinical practice guidelines for PrEP use in the United States, numerous implementation barriers remain, including questions about the effectiveness of PrEP, optimal settings for provision, cost, and the most effective ways to motivate healthcare practitioners to prescribe PrEP. Protocols to identify individuals who are most likely to benefit from PrEP have been developed, but addressing racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities poses additional challenges. This activity will marry Dr. Donna Sweet's personal experiences in clinical utilization of HIV prevention strategies with practical, evidence-based guidance for patient care decisions, to provide additional motivation and rationale for participants to review their own current management strategies and adjust them as needed to optimize patient care. Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to: Effectively engage patients in conversations about sexual health practice, to assess HIV risk factors and support their ability to have healthy sex lives, Develop comprehensive competencies (with a focus on pre-exposure prophylaxis [PrEP] interventions) based on a provider's individual patient needs, Consider current evidence and individual patient needs/preferences when integrating HIV prevention options (eg, PrEP, post-exposure prophylaxis [PEP], viral suppression, female condoms) into clinical practice, Employ culturally competent educational and counseling strategies to improve the uptake of prevention measures among patients at increased risk for HIV infection, Facilitate access to HIV prevention options by effectively connecting patients to available resources, support, and assistance, Describe currently available tools that have been shown to significantly reduce the risk of HIV transmission or acquisition
