ISOPP is forming an Immunotherapy Task Force and we are looking for members who can be part of developing a global position statement on the pharmacist’s role in the era of Immunotherapy; incorporating a focus on low to middle income countries.  In addition, the Task Force’s mandate includes developing a Toolkit for patient and health care professional, and providing education and training opportunities at a future ISOPP Symposium. Please express your interest in being part on the Task Force via email at immunotherapy@isopp.org by Monday, September 28, 2020.

Have you yet checked out ISOPP’s Biosimilars Toolkit of Resources that was launched in May 2020?  Let us know your feedback and give us your ideas for more resources by emailing services@isopp.org.

The Toolkit provides tools aimed at assisting oncology pharmacy practitioners to understand and implement Biosimilars in their practice. It forms part of ISOPP’s Virtual Library and access is complimentary for members.  Not a member?  Join ISOPP.

The COVID-19 pandemic predictably put the activities of many organizations involved in international health either on temporary hold or re-focused on more immediate health care systems/facility planning for patients with and without malignant disease. The activity of the WHO Essential Medicines List (EML) Secretariat were one of those notably affected.  Now that the pandemic is (albeit far from over) slowly coming under control, some of these activities are re-initiating.  ISOPP (via this Task Force) has been recently invited to participate in a number of these activities.  

 

ISOPP has been invited to collaborate in the creation of the Handbook, which as a first step, will commence with generation of an initial set of 4 of these Treatment Regimens.  What WHO is asking for from ISOPP is to provide feedback from the point of view of an Oncology Pharmacist on the feasibility/practicality/challenges and pitfalls of implementing and delivering these chemotherapy regimens in the Low and Middle Income Country (LMIC) context.
