An observational study in Multidisciplinary Consultation Program, Adherence to Oral Anticancer Treatment and Drug Related Toxicity, sponsored by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens. Recruiting at 1 site in France. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2025-04-02.
Sponsored by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens · Observational
Oncology management has changed dramatically over the last decade with the approval and rapid adoption of newly targeted oral oncology medications. The movement to oral oncology medications has altered the balance of risks and adverse effects (AEs) in the treatment of cancer care. These treatments are associated with a different constellation of AEs and drug interactions. Patients receiving treatment with oral anticancer treatment (OAT) encounter several barriers to adherence, which may include limited access to specialty medications, severe adverse effects, complex medication regimens, and special handling precautions. Medication nonadherence not only reduces the efficacy of drug therapy but also has the potential to increase healthcare expenditures due to disease-related hospitalizations. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the drug adherence in cancer patients, using the medication possession ratio (MPR), before and after the implementation of a multidisciplinary consultation program (MCP), on initiation of OAT.
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens is the lead sponsor of 576 studies on the registry; 178 are open to participants now.
Counted across the registry records on this site, refreshed daily.
Patients with standard treatment or after implementation of a MCP The MCP was divided into 3 steps: the first step involved a consultation with an oncologist, the second step involved a consultation with an oncology pharmacist, and the third step involved a meeting with a coordinating nurse CN. The CN put in place a regular telephone follow-up with the patient, a few days later (7 to 15 days), to ensure adherence and tolerance of the OAT.
Exclusion Criteria:
patients in control group receive standard care
intervention group after implementation of a MCP
Device: multidisciplinary consultation program

medication possession ratio (MPR)
The MPR makes it possible to determine the percentage of days of treatment covered by pharmacy dispensing. A patient is generally considered observant if MPR is greater than or equal to 80%.
Time frame: two months
