Study Reveals Promising Results for Using Serum Drug Levels to Monitor Adjuvant Tamoxifen Adherence in Early-Stage Breast Cancer
In this study, the cutoff for biochemical adherence/nonadherence was a serum tamoxifen level of 60 ng/mL.
Nonadherence to Abiraterone or Enzalutamide for Metastatic CRPC May Be More Common in Frail Patients
This observational cohort study found that BAAS questionnaire is not a suitable tool for monitoring whether older patients with mCRPC are adherent to their antiandrogen therapy; however, pill counting was effective.
Assessing Patterns of Adherence and Persistence With FTD + TPI and REG for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
This study investigated patient adherence and persistence with trifluridine/tipiracil combination and regorafenib regimens for metastatic colorectal cancer, and also addressed whether sequence of administration had an effect on patient adherence and persistence to the therapies.
Adherence to Other Oral Medications Declines Following Introduction of Oral Oncolytics
This study assessed levels of adherence to antihypertensive, lipid-lowering, and antidiabetic therapy in patients initiating oral oncology therapy for a hematologic cancer.
Patients Have Mixed Responses Regarding Discontinuing TKI Therapy for Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
An interesting finding from this study was that many of the reasons offered by patients either in support of or against TKI discontinuation related to the same topic areas.
Indirect Measures Demonstrated High Level of Adherence to Oral Immunomodulatory Therapy for Multiple Myeloma
Using separate indirect medication adherence measures, researchers determined adherence rates for patients with MM treated with oral immunomodulatory therapy.
Depression and Adherence to Oral Anticancer Therapy
A prospective pilot study investigated the impact of depression on adherence to oral anticancer therapy in older patients with a wide range of advanced solid tumors.
Oral Therapies: Strategies to Ensure Adherence
Oral therapy brings new challenges to oncology practices, because more responsibility of adherence is placed under patient and caregiver control.
