Overcoming childhood cancers is critically dependent on the state of research. Understanding how, with whom and what the research community is doing with childhood cancers is essential for ensuring the evidence-based policies at national and European level to support children, their families and researchers. As part of the European Union funded EUROCANCERCOMS project to study and integrate cancer communications across Europe, we have carried out new research into the state of research in childhood cancers. We are very grateful for all the support we have received from colleagues in the European paediatric oncology community, and in particular from Edel Fitzgerald and Samira Essiaf from the SIOP Europe office. This report and the evidence-based policies that arise from it come at a important junction for Europe and its Member States. They provide a timely reminder that research into childhood cancers is critical and needs sustainable long-term support.
战胜儿童癌症严重依赖于研究状况。了解研究界如何开展、与谁合作以及针对儿童癌症开展了哪些研究,对于确保国家和欧洲层面基于证据的政策以支持儿童、其家庭和研究人员至关重要。作为欧盟资助的EUROCANCERCOMS项目的一部分,该项目旨在研究和整合欧洲各地的癌症沟通情况,我们对儿童癌症的研究状况进行了新的研究。我们非常感谢欧洲儿科肿瘤学界同事给予的所有支持,特别是来自国际小儿肿瘤学会欧洲办公室的埃德尔·菲茨杰拉德和萨米拉·埃西亚夫。本报告及其所产生的基于证据的政策正值欧洲及其成员国的一个重要关头。它们适时提醒人们,儿童癌症研究至关重要,需要可持续的长期支持。
