Cancer = numerou8s diseases and I wish they never just lumped them all into one category.
SAD THING another knock against pediatric cancer. Pediatric cancer get's less then 4% of Federal Funding and American Cancer Society gives less then 1% toward it. Now these numbers will be used to funnel more money away from finding a cure for neglected research. Not one new chemotherapy drug for pediatric cancer in 24 years!!!!
- refurb 13y agoWhat? I did a quick google search and Arranon was approved for pediatric cancer last July. http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/druginfo/fda-nelarabine http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/druginfo/fda-nelarabine Also, if you looked up the number of pediatric cancer cases as a total of all cancer cases, the 4% makes sense. I dug the numbers up a while ago, but you can find them with a quick google search.
