The Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technologies in Health (CADTH) has published the CADTH Pharmaceutical Reviews Update. This is a new consolidated publication that will communicate updates to the CADTH's drug review process. It replaces previous individual publications, including the CDR Update, the pCODR Update, the Therapeutic Review Update and Updates for Patient Groups.

Among other things, the first issue of the CADTH Pharmaceutical Reviews Update invites stakeholder comments on a number of proposals and announces changes to the Pan-Canadian Oncology Drug Review.
