In its eighth year, The Oncology Pharmacist (TOP) will continue to provide oncology pharmacists and their colleagues with the latest research findings and results of large clinical trials, interviews with thought leaders, as well as content for pharmacy students and residents, and articles on practice management.

In particular, this issue of TOP features a cancer center profile from St. Joseph’s/Candler Health System, best practices in care in cancer care—including an article on biosimilars and patient safety for oral chemotherapy—and a column on the economics of cancer care. We also provide conference highlights from the American Society of Hematology, the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, and the World Cutaneous Malignancies Congress.

This February issue also features the first column on wealth management, with a column by Andrew D. Schwartz, CPA, and Lawrence B. Keller, CFP, CFU, CLU, ChFC, RHU, LUTCF, providing 8 ways to improve your finances.

The issue is also available on the TOP website, at TheOncologyPharmacist.com. Take some time to go through it and send us feedback on articles you enjoyed, and be sure to vote on the current poll.
