A Masterclass programme on the Pharmaceutical Treatment of Cancer has been developed by the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences in Trinity College Dublin in collaboration with the Trinity St. James’s Cancer Institute (TSJCI) and with support from the Irish Pharmacy Haematology Oncology Society (IPHOS) and Pharmacists in Industry, Education and Regulation (PIER).
The programme consists of two masterclasses, MC1 (Fundamentals of Cancer) on April 9th and MC2 (Treatment of Cancer with SACT) on May 7th. See additional information and how to register below.
This Masterclass programme will look at the treatment of cancer with SACT. Two in-person Masterclasses will be offered; Masterclass 1 focusing on the Fundamentals of Cancer and Masterclass 2 focusing on the Treatment of Cancer with systemic anticancer therapy (SACT). The programme will give participants a well-rounded introduction to cancer and specifically the pharmaceutical treatment of cancer. In addition, the programme will give participants the tools to grow and enhance their confidence in understanding the use of SACT to treat cancer and supporting patients on treatment.
Each Masterclass will be a one-day event, with a light lunch included, held in Portal, 1st Floor Trinity Business School. Attendees are expected to attend both days. Participation in this CPD course does not include access to the Trinity Library or any other student services (including a student ID card).
The programme will provide participants with a novel opportunity to meet and network with other pharmacy practitioners and healthcare practitioners (HCPs) from different sectors and will give a rounded view of the patient pathway through their treatment with SACT.
Pharmacy practitioners in hospital, community or industry and HCPs including medical or scientific advisors in the pharmaceutical industry, who have no/ limited experience in oncology or who would like to refresh their knowledge in this field. This programme is ideal for anyone looking to up-skill and develop their knowledge to support patients with a cancer diagnosis.
Participants will receive a certificate of attendance at the conclusion of the Masterclass programme and participants will be encouraged to form a communication network for further peer support. Feedback provided from Masterclass attendees will help to inform the further direction of CPD provision and postgradute offerings in the clinical cancer space.
The masterclass will be taught by practitioners experienced in the treatment of cancer, including experienced members of the TSJCI team in St. James’ Hospital, with input from academics in the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences.
The programme educators have significant experience in delivering educational material to the healthcare and pharma sector and will work alongside the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences to offer an engaging and relevant course.
