CAR T-CELL THERAPY. ACCELERATING ADOPTION THROUGH COLLABORATION

delivering innovative cancer medicines in a modern healthcare system is a daunting challenge for canadians. the introduction of CAR T cell therapy brings with it an enormous amount of complexity for our systems. establishing canada’s viability as a healthcare innovator, as a partner in delivering exceptional patient care, and a pioneer in healthcare policy that engages with stakeholders throughout the process is at a critical standpoint and we must work together to accelerate adoption of CAR-T today and to deliver the medicines of tomorrow.

CRISIS TO CATALYST. USING LESSONS LEARNED FROM COVID19 TO PRIORITIZE CANCER CARE IN CANADA

in this colab.paper, we examine the response to COVID19 and explore how it can be used to inform a renewed political effort to address the growing burden of cancer. We examine the role of governments, healthcare systems, partners, and communities, and shed light on the steps. We argue that by applying the lessons learned from the prioritization of the COVID19 pandemic, Canada can make meaningful progress towards improving outcomes for cancer patients.

DE CRISE A CATALYSEUR. TIRER DES LEÇONS DE LA PANDÉMIE POUR PRIORISER LE CANCER AU CANADA

dans ce colab.paper, nous examinons la réponse au COVID19 et explorons comment elle peut être utilisée pour éclairer un effort politique renouvelé pour lutter contre le fardeau croissant du cancer. Nous examinons le rôle des gouvernements, des systèmes de santé, des partenaires et des communautés, et mettons en lumière les étapes à suivre. Nous soutenons qu’en appliquant les leçons tirées de la priorisation de la pandémie de COVID-19, le Canada peut réaliser des progrès significatifs vers l’amélioration des résultats pour les patients atteints de cancer.
