Strategic Areas of Focus:

Provider Models:
Oncology is provider-driven, and understanding evolving operational models (e.g., pathways, EMR order sets, biomarker testing) is key for effective targeting.
Clinical Pathways:
As cancer treatments grow more complex and costly, clinical pathways increasingly influence healthcare provider decision-making.
Payer Management:
Payers are adapting their oncology management strategies (e.g., pathways, OBM/LBM), potentially implementing stricter restrictions in competitive indications.
Pricing & Contracting:
Manufacturers are focusing on innovative GPO contracts and non-discount models to incentivize access and engage practice groups.
Patient Support Services:
Oncology requires high-touch patient support services to improve treatment adherence and outcomes.
Distribution Model Strategy:
Effective distribution models are essential for the successful delivery of complex oncology therapies.
Precision Medicine:
Maximizing biomarker testing rates through oncologist and pathologist engagement is essential for successful launches of targeted therapies.
Complex Therapies:
New therapies like radioligand treatments, bispecific antibodies, and personalized cancer vaccines drive innovation but create challenges for adoption and access.
