Outcomes Study: A Health System Specialty Pharmacy-led Check-in Protocol in Patients on Oral Oncolytics

Written by admin | Sep 22, 2023 7:36:28 PM

Members of our team had the opportunity to present a new poster abstract at the  2023 NASP Annual Meeting & Expo, which was held from September 18-21. 

Background
High toxicity profiles of oral oncolytic medications (OAMs) can lead to decreased time on therapy.


Medication persistence can be improved through high-touch communication between patients and pharmacists. With earlier touch points, pharmacists are more likely to identify patient-related challenges to therapy.

Clinical care management and reporting platforms like TherigySTMâ„  have allowed for the development of health system specialty pharmacy (HSSP) protocolized check-ins.

 

Objectives

To evaluate the outcomes of an HSSP-led 7- to 14-day check-in protocol, using TherigySTM, on identifying and addressing early side effects of OAMs.
