What is ZERO Childhood Cancer?
The Zero Childhood Cancer Personalised Medicine Program (ZERO) is Australia’s first and most comprehensive precision medicine approach for children with cancer. The basic premise of ZERO is that every child's cancer is unique, just as every child is unique. It is a translational research and clinical program that aims to establish a framework to efficiently identify and recommend personalized therapy and improve prognosis and quality of life for all children diagnosed with cancer. Zero Childhood Cancer is led in partnership by Children’s Cancer Institute and Kids Cancer Centre at Sydney Children's Hospital, Randwick. The program demonstrates unprecedented national collaboration between all eight paediatric oncology centres in Australia, and 12 leading research institutes nationally and internationally.
