OPTA March 2026 Meeting

Date: March 11, 2026 | 3:00 PM

This month, our Oncology Pharmacy Technician Community will focus on one of the most important safety touchpoints in oral oncolytic therapy: the Complete Blood Count (CBC).

CBCs show up every day but knowing what’s routine vs. what needs attention (and when to escalate) can make a real difference in patient care.

This special CE-accredited session builds confidence understanding CBC components, recognizing clinically significant abnormalities, and supporting timely team communication within established workflows.

What we’ll cover:

  • Key components of a CBC and why they matter in oncology care
  • Normal vs. abnormal values and identify thresholds that may impact oral oncolytic therapy
  • How CBC trends can influence delays, dose adjustments, or supportive care
  • Common CBC patterns you may see in day-to-day oncology practice
  • Know when and how to communicate lab-related findings to the pharmacist or oncology team based on workflow processes
