Childhood Cancer
Cancers in children and adolescents are rare diseases that differ from those seen in adults. Their diagnosis and treatment require specialized teams capable of combining care, support, and research throughout the entire treatment journey. At Gustave Roussy, the Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Oncology welcomes young patients and their families into an environment tailored to their age and needs.
Overview
Life During Treatment
Care is not limited to medical treatment. It also aims to preserve, as much as possible, the child’s and their family’s daily life, education, social connections, and well-being.

Coordinated care
Medical decisions are discussed by several specialists. Depending on the condition and the situation, the care pathway may involve pediatric oncology, surgery, radiation therapy, imaging, pathology, supportive care, and specialized hospital partners.
Clinical Trials and Research
Pediatric research aims to better understand each disease, develop more effective treatments, and minimize long-term complications. At Gustave Roussy, this research combines laboratory research, molecular profiling, clinical trials, and national and international collaborations.
