Rosandra Kaplan, Senior Investigator Physician Scientist Pediatric Oncologist at National Cancer Institute (NCI), shared Nancy Goodman’s, Founder and CEO of KIDS V CANCER, post on LinkedIn, adding:
“I’ll be speaking at/attending AACR pediatric cancer and look forward to the discussions, collaborations and collective effort forward progress! We are so grateful to Kids v Cancer for all the amazing work to get new therapies to kids and to push to get approval.
I’m excited to share we have our first in human myeloid cell therapy trial opening! Happy to have any referrals of those folks with relapsed, refractory solid tumor cancers.”
Quoting Nancy Goodman’s post:
“Kids v Cancer will be at the AACR pediatric cancer conference in Philadelphia this week (Sept 22-25). This is where the science and the policy have to meet. The researchers in those rooms will be presenting on pediatric advances including immunotherapy, tumor cell biology, and metabolism.

Our job is making sure the regulatory pathways – pediatric study plans, written requests, priority review vouchers – actually get those discoveries tested in kids and onto a label. Too often they don’t, even after the science is there.
If you’re attending, I’d like to connect.”
