Summary
Cancer is increasingly common in Australia and often treated with expensive drugs tested in idealised settings within clinical trials. It is vital to collect real world data about how cancer treatments are used in Australia. This research will use routinely collected health care data to determine how anti-cancer drugs are used in the real world, how effective they are in treating cancer, and identify areas for improvement to promote effe ctive, appropriate and equitable use of anti-cancer drugs.
