Throughout the year, we will share articles from the MASCC journal Supportive Care in Cancer. The “Editor’s Pick” section, chosen by the journal’s Editor-In-Chief, Dr. Fred Ashbury PhD, will cover a variety of topics to meet the many interests of our membership.
This month we feature “A review of factors influencing non-adherence to oral antineoplastic drugs.”
From the Abstract: Adherence to oral antineoplastic drugs is a complex phenomenon, and knowledge about the reasons that people with cancer do not adhere to their prescriptions is essential to inform adherence-related support in clinical and research contexts. This study aims to provide an up-to-date summary of the key reasons for non-adherence to oral antineoplatic drugs (OAD) in people with cancer.
