About Us
Our mission is to ensure equal access to optimal long-term care and to improve quality of life for every child and adolescent in Europe after their cancer treatment.
PanCare
Survival rates in childhood cancer are increasing. Although this is a great success, up to 60 to 70% of childhood cancer survivors suffer from cancer- and treatment-related long-term effects that need life-long follow-up care.We are a multidisciplinary pan‐European network of professionals, survivors and their families.
We work on long-term follow-up care, guidelines and are a resource of research based information concerning all late side-effects of cancer treatment. An important aim of PanCare is to work with the European Community to increase awareness and research about childhood cancer survivors.
