PROSTMATE
Australian Prostate Centre
PROSTMATE is a ground-breaking, personalised, online support system for those dealing with prostate cancer. It also provides the opportunity to participate in interventions that will enhance wellbeing and provide vital research information to shape the future care of men with prostate cancer.PROSTMATE makes support easily accessible to all those who need it, no matter where they live. Its platform includes a central space to find information tailored to the stage where a patient is at; a section to log treatments, appointments and results; a system that asks the user how they are to monitor their progress over time; and a portal to have 'virtual' consultations with clinicians and allied health professionals. Developed in partnership with leading cancer agencies, researchers and clinicians, PROSTMATE is coordinated by the Australian Prostate Centre. Its creation was driven by men with prostate cancer who experienced limited access to tailored information and clinical support during their difficult prostate cancer journey.
