Strategies for future AYA research and care
Approach . | Goals . |
---|---|
Build a “rapid learning” environment for AYA cancers through retrospective individual patient data analysis | Better understand impact of disease biology, treatment strategy, and site of care on AYA outcomes |
Open pediatric “standard-of-care” trials for AYAs | Evaluate efficacy and toxicities of pediatric treatment approaches for AYAs |
Establish AYA “centers of excellence” | Understand and address barriers to AYA enrollment onto clinical trials |
Implement patient navigators for AYAs | Address psychosocial and adherence barriers to receipt of cancer care by AYAs |
