ABSTRACT
The COVID-pandemic has shown significant impact on cancer care from early detection, management plan to clinical outcomes of cancer patients. The Asian National Cancer Centres Alliance (ANCCA) has put together the 9 "Ps" as guidelines for cancer programs to better prepare for the next pandemic. The 9 "Ps" are Priority, Protocols and Processes, Patients, People, Personal Protective Equipments (PPEs), Pharmaceuticals, Places, Preparedness, and Politics. Priority to maintain cancer care as a key priority in the health system response even during a global infectious disease pandemic. Protocol and processes to develop a set of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and have relevant expertise to man the Disease Outbreak Response (DORS) Taskforce before an outbreak. Patients to prioritize patient safety in the event of an outbreak and the need to reschedule cancer management plan, supported by tele-consultation and use of artificial intelligence technology. People to have business continuity planning to support surge capacity. PPEs and Pharmaceuticals to develop plan for stockpiles management, build local manufacturing capacity and disseminate information on proper use and reduce wastage. Places to design and build cancer care facilities to cater for the need of triaging, infection control, isolation and segregation. Preparedness to invest early on manpower building and technology innovations through multisectoral and international collaborations. Politics to ensure leadership which bring trust, cohesion and solidarity for successful response to pandemic and mitigate negative impact on the healthcare system.
