Resolution on Health Systems and Treatment Optimisation
19 November 2020
Resolution passed during the European Cancer Summit 2020:
"Research in cancer care should address questions relevant and meaningful for patients and public health. Such research should follow an independent process to support optimal access for patients to evidence-based multidisciplinary cancer treatment.
To achieve this, a reorientation of health systems and research approaches in cancer is needed. This requires addressing gaps in clinical and health services research applied to cancer through a reverse engineering approach, starting with better definition of the important clinical and public health questions."
