​​Launched in August 2015, the BORTEZOMIB@Home programme is a partnership between the NCIS and Johnson & Johnson Pte Ltd to create convenient and accessible cancer care and treatment for our patients.

The programme is offered to Myeloma patients at NCIS who are not community ambulatory, to provide them with the option of having their Bortezomib injections adminstered in the comfort of their own homes. For patients who are community ambulatory, they can opt to have their Bortezomib injections done at the various NCIS on the GO locations or at the NCIS Chemotherapy Centre.
