Grant Activity:
Pharmacogenomics for better treatment of fungal infections in cancer
Purpose:
PRAGMATIC will deliver a high-quality and cost-effective approach to optimise the quality of care of cancer patients. This research will support pharmacists working to the full scope of practice, applying their expertise in using diagnostic and therapeutic innovations to provide patient-centred care. We will achieve this by conducting a randomised clinical trial in cancer patients (aged =2 years) and prescribed voriconazole, in which we will compare the effectiveness of genomic-testing plus a genotype-based dosing guideline (ARM 1), with genomic-testing plus software-informed dose optimisation (ARM 2); coupled with an implementation project to ensure the future scalability of the interventions by tailoring them to each study setting.
