Systemic Anti-Cancer Therapy Regimen Library

Welcome to the Systemic Anti-Cancer Therapy Regimen Library (SACT Regimen Library or SRL).

The Anti-Cancer Therapy – Nationally Organised Workstreams (ACT-NOW) programme is developing a detailed database of information on patients receiving systemic therapy across New Zealand. ACT-NOW works with the medical oncology, haematology, pharmacist, and nursing communities to identify and reduce variation, enhance equity of access, and support resource planning. The SACT Regimen Library (SRL) is a key component of ACT-NOW.

SRL is a national database of systemic anti-cancer therapy regimen definitions that have been developed and endorsed by the New Zealand clinical community. The objective of the SRL is to identify the range of systemic therapy regimens in use and give each a clear name. Previously, cancer centres have used different names for similar regimens, and this has limited the ability to compare outcomes and improve care. Clinicians have agreed a standard naming convention as part of working together to better understand how systemic therapy is being delivered in New Zealand and how we can improve treatment and outcomes for people with cancer.
