Summary

This study will follow 6,000 children, adolescents, and young adults with cancer in low- and middle-income countries. Researchers will collect data from medical records and questionnaires to understand why treatment failure and severe side effects are more common in these settings. The goal is to identify barriers to care and inform future efforts to improve cancer outcomes.
