Provincial Systemic Therapy Program (PSTP) Education Bulletin aims to educate healthcare professionals on new treatment programs being considered for implementation at BC Cancer in the near future.
Provincial Systemic Therapy Program (PSTP) Education Bulletin
The goal is to support staff as they prepare for new systemic therapy treatments, and to ensure safe patient care during the administration, distribution and management of new and complex treatments.
Each Education Bulletin will include upcoming proposed drug(s)/treatment program(s) to allow time for clinical staff to become familiar with these treatments prior to encountering them in practice.
Common topics include:
- Proposed indication(s)
- Administration
- Common adverse effects
Educational Bulletins will be published on a regular basis, as new systemic programs become available and are being considered for funding.
