Norton Children’s Cancer Institute, affiliated with the UofL School of Medicine, is at the forefront of pediatric sarcoma treatment research. As principal investigators on numerous trials, our specialist physicians have unparalleled experience with many innovative treatments once they are approved for broad use. Patients also may be eligible to take part in these experimental pediatric sarcoma treatments. Norton Children’s Cancer Institute researchers also contribute to groundbreaking studies and other publications in peer-reviewed journals.
Norton Children’s Cancer Institute also is part of the Beat Childhood Cancer research consortium. The consortium is a group of 40-plus universities and children’s hospitals offering a worldwide network of childhood cancer research trials coordinated by Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
These trials are based on the work of a group of researchers connected with laboratory programs that develop new therapies for high-risk pediatric cancers — all with the goal of finding a cure.
