Job description
Description

The START Center for Cancer Research ("START") is the world's largest early phase site network, fully dedicated to oncology clinical research. Throughout our history, START has provided hope to cancer patients in global community practices by offering access to cutting edge trials throughout the US and Europe. Today, with over 1,300 studies completed, and with research facilities in the United States and in Spain, Portugal, and Ireland, START's mission is to accelerate the development of new anticancer drugs that will improve the quality of life and survival for patients with cancer and lead to its eventual cure. To date, over 43 therapies conducted at START locations have obtained FDA/EMA approval. Incredibly, while Academic Medical Centers (AMCs) conduct 80% of cancer trials, such trials reach only 20% of the patient population - leaving the majority of patients who are treated in community practices and hospitals without access to a clinical trial when their care journey calls for one. START serves the many - by bringing cancer trials to physicians and their patients in community hospitals and practices when hope is needed most.

START represents the world's largest roster of Principal Investigators (PIs) across its eight clinical trial sites. Committed to accelerating passage from trials to treatments, START delivers hope to patients, families, and physicians around the world. As an example, in San Antonio, where START was founded, START treated the first patient ever with Keytruda - the most effective cancer drug in medical history.

We are hiring a Pharmacy Technician. The role will assure safe, efficient, and cost-effective preparation of chemotherapy, biologic therapy, and supportive care medications for administration to patients following all applicable regulations. Also, this role will work collaboratively with Site Leaders and Pharmacists to maintain adequate and cost-effective inventory of drugs and supplies.

Essential Responsibilities:
  • Mix and label chemotherapy, biologic therapy and supportive care medications.
  • Perform proper procedures and documentation in inventory management systems during the fulfillment of the medication order.
  • Prepare parenteral dosage forms utilizing aseptic techniques in accordance with departmental policies, standards set forth in current USP, state & federal regulations and GCP guidelines for investigational medications.
  • Prepare and deliver medication ensuring proper storage location requirements are met based on the stability needs of the product.
  • Perform routine weekly inventory and quality assurance tasks, including checking extemporaneously manufactured medications, commercially available medications, I.V. solutions and equipment for expiration dates, recalls, or signs of deterioration.
  • Receive medication and supplies in accordance with inventory control and purchasing policies. Help to maintain all medication inventory levels within the predetermined stocking level, calling attention to needs for revision, or perpetual supply problems.
  • Interact with study monitors by providing drug accountability reports and temperature storage logs. Facilitate monitor verification of inventory, training and other GCP documentation.
  • Maintain and generate reports through the applicable computer programs.
  • Other duties may be assigned at any time.
).Education & Experience
  • High School Diploma/GED.
  • At least 2 years of experience preparing chemotherapy and biologic therapies.
  • Current State registration as a pharmacy technician (CPhT).
