Families & Kids

Welcome to the POETIC Families & Kids Resource Pages

The following information is provided with the hope that this site may serve as a source of education and support for you and your family. We understand that you have questions and we want to help.

Listening to what other parents and families have shared with us about what would be helpful, we have provided general information on a range of topics related to pediatric cancer and clinical trials. Some of these topics include what it's like to be in a clinical trial, descriptions of tests your child may be scheduled for, the value of second opinions, the meaning of new words you may be hearing, outside resources for your family, and so much more.

We hope this information will assist you in your journey through Phase I and II trials.
