Pediatric and Adolescent Solid Tumor Steering Committee

The Pediatric and Adolescent Solid Tumor Steering Committee (PASTSC) was established in 2011. PASTSC members include representatives from the Children's Oncology Group, pediatric and medical oncologists and other specialists, translational scientists, biostatisticians, patient advocates, and NCI staff.

Mission Statement

The PASTSC works to promote the best clinical and translational science in the study of the extracranial solid tumors of children and youth by critically reviewing submitted phase II and phase III concepts for their rationale, design and priority. Concepts in brain and other central nervous system tumors are reviewed by the Brain Malignancies Steering Committee.
