What this trial studies
This study evaluates the impact of a multidisciplinary consultation program on drug adherence among patients undergoing their first oral anticancer treatment. It focuses on identifying barriers to adherence, such as access to medications, adverse effects, and complex regimens. The study measures drug adherence using the medication possession ratio (MPR) before and after implementing the consultation program. The goal is to enhance medication management and reduce healthcare costs associated with nonadherence.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this program could significantly improve drug adherence and treatment outcomes for cancer patients on oral therapies.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown that multidisciplinary approaches can improve medication adherence, suggesting potential success for this program.
