Cancer patient community organization · Georgia

Always beside cancer patients

We advocate for the right of every cancer patient in Georgia to receive treatment on time and without financial ruin — and we share what patients who have walked this path already know.

Patient rights advocacy, access to oncology medicines, mediation with the health system, and a community of more than 10,400 patients.

About us

Who we are

Oncoline Georgia was founded in 2020, shortly after its director Sophiko Phiranishvili was diagnosed with stage three malignant bone sarcoma. She began looking for others walking the same path — first creating the “Onco Club” community in 2019, and then the organization itself. Today the community brings together more than 10,400 people across Georgia.

What we do

Our work

Rights advocacy

We prepare and submit official appeals to the Ministry of Health and relevant agencies on behalf of patients.

Mediation

We mediate between patients and the health system on access to oncology services and medicines.

Medicine fund

Direct, practical support for patients who need medication today.

Public education

We work to make reliable oncology information accessible in the Georgian language.

Campaign: modern oncology medicines in the state programme

We advocate for modern oncology medicines — including Keytruda and Enhertu — to be included in Georgia's state programme and provided to patients free of charge. We also call for a permanent working group on cancer patient issues and systemic gaps in care.

Partnership

Work with us

We welcome partnerships with international organizations, donors and institutions working in oncology, patient advocacy and public health. We also run Kakheti Events, a green social enterprise staffed by cancer patients, people with disabilities and rural residents. It produces churchkhela, dried fruit and other traditional Kakhetian foods, and its income goes directly to covering medicines and essential costs for patients. It received a World Vision Georgia small grant in 2025 and a German Embassy grant in 2026.
