| Summary: | Background: Oncological therapy is based on multidimensional therapy protocols. The requirements for standardized protocols and digitation are high. These protocols are created through several complex development stages to ensure standardized recording. The process involves analyzing original publications published in international journals and extracting key content. Standardized supportive therapy is then added, and compatibility with current guidelines and quality controls is checked. Summary: The Onkopti® website is based on the WordPress content management system and provides protocols in a variety of formats, generated through the use of a relational SQL database (www.onkopti.de, www.onkopti.com, www.oncopti.com). It is continuously updated to include new therapeutic developments or changes to standard therapy. The protocols are stored in a relational database and can be exported to various application systems via a standardized XML format or other formats. The website and protocols are available in both German and English. As of January, 2025, there are over 2,700 protocols for parenteral and oral therapies for all oncological specialties. Key Messages: The digitalization of protocol selection, prescription, pharmacy preparation, hospital or practice information system documentation, billing, and prescription creation can accelerate, standardize, and streamline these processes. This optimization can significantly reduce personnel costs, resulting in cost savings, and improved quality. Plain Language Summary: The Onkopti® website is based on a comprehensive relational database for digitized treatment plans in oncology (www.onkopti.de, www.onkopti.com, www.oncopti.com). It is continuously updated to include new therapeutic developments or changes in the standard of care for malignant diseases. Protocols are generated from the modules of the database and can be exported to various application systems in standardized XML or other formats. The website and the protocols are available in English and German. As of January, 2025, there are over 2,700 protocols for parenteral and oral therapies for all oncology specialties. Therapy is prescribed using electronic prescribing systems to ensure the highest quality standards. The use of standardized, digitized therapy protocols and an electronic prescribing system minimizes the error rate in antineoplastic therapy. The rapid and ubiquitous availability of protocols accelerates the implementation of oncology treatment guidelines. By digitizing protocol selection, prescribing, pharmacy preparation, hospital or practice information system, documentation, billing, and prescription generation, these processes can be accelerated, standardized, and streamlined. This optimization can significantly reduce personnel costs, resulting in cost savings and improved quality.
