Ontario has expanded public coverage of five cancer treatments more quickly than in the past, thanks to a pilot project launched last fall to speed up access to oncology breakthroughs.

The Progressive Conservative government will announce Thursday the names of five cancer drugs that recently qualified for its Faster Access to Specialized Treatments (FAST) program, The Globe and Mail has learned.
