Mission

To identify and address specific oncology outcomes research issues and to develop recommendations to address these issues.

Background

The field of oncology outcomes research is complicated by the diversity of diseases within oncology, the rapidly changing nature of treatments, and the complexities of measuring cost, and quality of life - patient reported outcomes. As such, oncology outcomes research constitutes a unique segment of outcomes research, one that requires specific clinical and methodological knowledge for its proper conduct.
