While breakthrough treatments are helping patients live longer, staying on therapy remains a critical factor in improving outcomes. 

Advanced practice providers (APPs), including nurse practitioners and physician assistants, help patients navigate complex treatment decisions and stay on track with care.  

To support that work, Johnson & Johnson and the Advanced Practitioner Society for Hematology (APSHO) created the Make It HAPPen™ campaign, which highlights APPs and their crucial role in cancer care by providing resources, education and opportunities to improve patient-centered care in all settings. 

The standard of care for treating metastatic prostate cancer has dramatically evolved over the past decade, with targeted therapies now available to extend survival and improve quality of life, share about those if you would! 

Response: …  Treatment adherence is a critical factor in prostate cancer outcomes, yet many patients struggle with sticking with their treatment regimen.3
