Treatment Resistant Cancers

3.3K
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Public Health
  • Global Health

Background:

  • The International Society of Paediatric Oncology (SIOP) initiated a global pediatric cancer facility mapping program.
  • Previous data collection in Africa highlighted the need for improved strategies in other regions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To revise and enhance the data collection strategy for mapping pediatric cancer facilities in Latin America.
  • To improve data accuracy and avoid duplication in the SIOP's global pediatric oncology network.

Main Methods:

  • Collaboration between SIOP and the Sociedad Latino Americana de Oncología Pediátrica (SLAOP).
  • Delegates provided contacts for a 10-question survey on institutional capacities.
  • Data collected via email, online meetings, and telephone calls, stored securely.

Main Results:

  • All but one country in Latin America participated in the data collection.
  • A high number of pediatric cancer centers were successfully recorded.
  • The revised strategy proved effective for accurate data acquisition.

Conclusions:

  • The partnership between SIOP and SLAOP successfully updated the pediatric cancer facility map for Latin America.
  • The revised data collection methodology enhanced accuracy and completeness, strengthening the global network.
