Appendices
Clinical trials
- Recent Studies Posted
- Numeric list of RTOG trials
- Search the NCI website for protocols - gives publication info for completed trials
- Other cooperative groups:
- Lists of current protocols:
- GRCOP list of active protocols - lists Fast Facts for several national protocols
- CTSU - Cancer Trials Support Unit, part of the NCI.
Cancer statistics
- 2007 Cancer Facts and Figures - from the American Cancer Society, good resource for number of cases/year
- List of most commons (e.g. What is the 3rd most common pediatric extracranial malignancy?)
- Worldwide cancer statistics
- USA cancer statistics
- Survival curve terminology definitions
Other
Supplementary Material
- ASTRO meeting webcasts - ASTRO Spring Refresher Course, etc.
- Other meeting presentations
- National Cancer Institute PDQ (Physician Data Query) - information about treatment, supportive care, clinical trials, etc. An invaluable resource.
- Oncolink - U.Pennsylvania, provides summaries of trials presented at scientific meetings including ASTRO, ASCO, and others. Very nice.
