Funded Activity Summary

There is increasing concern, across several countries, that outcomes of care for adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer are not optimal. This project aims to improve outcomes of care for AYAs with cancer by providing information about the best way to organise health services. It will do this by describing patterns of care for 700 AYA patients with cancer; providing detailed data on experiences with care for 300 patients; and conducting in-depth qualitative interviews.
