What is GICC

Exploring GICC: Global Initiative Against Childhood Cancer

GICC aims to enhance the capacity of countries to diagnose, treat, and care for children with cancer effectively.

GICC stands for the Global Initiative Against Childhood Cancer. It is a collaborative effort led by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and other international partners to improve childhood cancer outcomes worldwide.

The initiative was launched in September 2018 and builds upon the WHO’s commitment to reducing premature mortality from non-communicable diseases, including childhood cancer. GICC focuses on addressing the disparities in childhood cancer survival rates between high income and low and middle-income countries.

Clinical trials are research studies that involve human volunteers to test new treatments, interventions, or diagnostic tests for various diseases, including childhood cancer. Clinical trials are critical to improving the outcomes for children with cancer because they help researchers to develop new and more effective treatments.

Participating in a clinical trial may offer children with cancer access to treatments that are not yet available to the general public. Clinical trials may also provide children with cancer access to more specialized care, support, and follow-up.
