Summary

This study collects real-world data on how well new cancer drugs work in children, teens, and young adults up to age 25 who have relapsed or stopped responding to treatment and cannot join a clinical trial. Researchers will track safety and effectiveness of targeted therapies, immunotherapies, and chemotherapies used in everyday medical practice. The goal is to improve access to innovative treatments and gather evidence to guide future care.
