Panelists discuss how successful ADC administration requires robust coordination between oncology and eye care teams through same-day appointments and shared medical records at academic centers, while emphasizing the need for partnerships with local eye care providers, standardized protocols, and expanded provider education to ensure safe delivery in community settings as more ADCs enter clinical use.
Integrating Oncology and Eye Care for ADC Management
Successful ADC administration relies on robust coordination between oncology and eye care teams. Institutions with strong interdisciplinary systems offer same-day appointments and share medical records to streamline patient monitoring and treatment decisions.
For patients traveling long distances or lacking access to academic centers, partnerships with local optometrists and ophthalmologists are essential. Providing clear documentation, drug information, and exam forms improves compliance and facilitates safe ADC delivery in community settings.
Standardizing care protocols, increasing manufacturer involvement in provider education, and expanding eye care networks are key future steps. As more ADCs enter clinical use, ensuring seamless collaboration across specialties will be crucial for optimizing both efficacy and safety.
