First seen Jul 08, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a program where clinical pharmacists provide personalized counseling to cancer patients taking oral anticancer drugs. The goal is to see if this support helps patients take their medication more consistently. Researchers will compare two groups of 80 patients each—one group before the program and one group after at least six months in the program—using surveys to measure adherence and usability.
