Director's Corner

Welcome to the fifth issue of Perspectives on Childhood Cancer, the international eJournal of Texas Children’s Cancer Center. This issue contains articles written by experts at Texas Children’s Cancer Center pertaining to a variety of subjects: new therapies in pediatric cancer, ependymomas, HIV-related malignancies and nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Texas Children’s Cancer Center is one of the largest pediatric cancer programs in the United States. We are dedicated to improving the outcome of all patients afflicted with these diseases and committed to a future free from the threat of childhood cancer. We offer innovative therapies for all forms of childhood cancer, and have highlighted a couple of our open clinical trials in this issue of the eJournal. A more complete listing of our open clinical trials can be found on our Web site: www.txccc.org/ClinicalTrials.

We hope you enjoy reading Perspectives on Childhood Cancer and that you will share it with your colleagues. Please feel free to e-mail us with questions and topic ideas.

Sincerely,
