New study gives kids with relapsed cancer access to cutting-edge drugs outside clinical trials
NCT ID NCT04477681
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
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.
