Community Oncology Pharmacy Association | Strategic Alliance Partners

A session at the Community Oncology Alliance virtual 2021 conference noted that clinical trials have found promising new treatments for patients with breast cancer, offering opportunities for future new approvals and indications.

In patients who received early palliative care, researchers noted a lower percentage of patients with depression, improved quality of life, and, significantly, longer survival.

Panelists at the Community Oncology Alliance (COA) virtual 2021 conference said the impacts of the pandemic on their day-to-day operations were challenging, although they all said they were proud of how their staff handled the rapid changes in spring of 2020.

Staying educated in the formal and informal health care settings surrounding state-of-the-art cancer care in the community practice is essential for success.

As a nonprofit focused on enhancing patient care. COPA is in a unique position to serve as a noncommercial organization dedicated to addressing community oncology pharmacy issues, all in the sole interest of patient care.

The partnership will develop and publish Directions in Oncology PharmacyTM.
