Abstract

We commend Mark Lawler and colleagues1 for their call for the strategic expansion of cancer research in Europe towards a more patient-centred and data-driven agenda. Cancer occurs in all ages and 35 000 children and young people (aged 0–25 years) are diagnosed each year in Europe. As a result of clinical research, integration of care and research, and academic cooperative groups linking clinical with basic and translational research during the past 50 years, 5-year survival for cancer has now risen to 80% in children and young people.
