ASCO shared on X:
“American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and World Health Organization (WHO) have signed a collaboration agreement to address international challenges in accessing quality cancer care.
Key focus areas:
- Professional capacity building
- Clinical trial access
- Quality
- Accountability.
Read The Announcement.”
Yüksel Ürün, Professor of Medical Oncology at Ankara University School of Medicine, added on X:
“Excellence matters. But access to excellence matters just as much.
No organization can close the global cancer care gap alone.
When ASCO’s oncology expertise meets WHO’s global reach, collaboration can turn knowledge into capacity, access, and better care.”
