Webinar
BHBIA The Power of Combining Quant & Qual Research in the Field of Oncology
Zoom
Thursday 11 June 2026, 12:30PM - 13:30PM
Ever wondered why your ex-factory sales for infused products, especially in oncology, do not match expected volumes based on forecast funnels?
Summary
In this ground-breaking research we combine the power of primary market research with the latest indication-level drug usage data to provide answers to this common question. Through a six-month study, this expert team of pharmacists, pharmacy technicians and data scientists will explain how injectable oncology drugs are managed within hospitals, showcase how data discrepancies can arise and give suggestion on how to manage them.
What to expect
This engaging session opens with introductions and an overview of the discussion’s key themes. Participants will then hear a compelling case study from a business insights expert, exploring how a leading pharmaceutical company addressed a real-world challenge when product volumes didn’t align with forecasts—revealing valuable lessons in data interpretation and operational agility.
A panel of respected pharmacy aseptic experts will follow, offering critical insights into how injectable oncology medicines are managed within the NHS.
The discussion will delve into practical and strategic issues such as dose banding, vial sharing, wastage, treatment delays, and the balance between internal and external aseptic preparation.
Building on these perspectives, a second case study will showcase how targeted research and collaboration helped to uncover and resolve data discrepancies, driving more informed decision-making and improved efficiency.
