February 15 is International Childhood Cancer Day throughout the world. 80% of children in countries, like the U.S., survive childhood cancer. In developing countries???

About 150,000 new cases per year.
Survival rate 10-20%.
At least 50% of these children could be cured with standard therapy generic drugs.
The key problems are:
– lack of awareness of curability;
– too little expertise and resources
– lack of access to treatment

Child morality from cancer in developing countries is increasing!
