Resources for identifying and understanding treatments for childhood cancer.

In 2005, the National Academy of Sciences published Making Better Drugs for Children With Cancer, a report on the successes and ongoing challenges in treating childhood cancer.

Included in the report is a list of commonly used agents to treat childhood cancers as well as a variety of other details related to the research and development of new cancer treatments for children. The report can be read in full for free at books.nap.edu.
