Abstract

BACKGROUND: Oncological therapy is based on multidimensional therapy protocols. The requirements for standardized protocols and digitation are high. These protocols are created through several complex development stages to ensure standardized recording. The process involves analyzing original publications published in international journals and extracting key content. Standardized supportive therapy is then added, and compatibility with current guidelines and quality controls is checked.

SUMMARY: The Onkopti® website is based on the WordPress content management system and provides protocols in a variety of formats, generated through the use of a relational SQL database (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.onkopti.de" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">www.onkopti.de</ext-link>, <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.onkopti.com" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">www.onkopti.com</ext-link>, <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.oncopti.com" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">www.oncopti.com</ext-link>). It is continuously updated to include new therapeutic developments or changes to standard therapy. The protocols are stored in a relational database and can be exported to various application systems via a standardized XML format or other formats. The website and protocols are available in both German and English. As of January, 2025, there are over 2,700 protocols for parenteral and oral therapies for all oncological specialties.

KEY MESSAGES: The digitalization of protocol selection, prescription, pharmacy preparation, hospital or practice information system documentation, billing, and prescription creation can accelerate, standardize, and streamline these processes. This optimization can significantly reduce personnel costs, resulting in cost savings, and improved quality.
