Children with Leukemia and Lymphoma: Diagnosis and Management

Dear Colleagues,

The cure rate of children with acute leukemias and lymphomas has been a tremendous success with long-term survival approaching 100% for some patients in recent clinical trials; however, survivors face a significant healthcare burden from the current approach that relies heavily on dose-intensified conventional chemotherapy. In recent years, following the boom of artificial intelligence, precision medicine has driven tremendous enthusiasm and interest among patients and providers alike, making it possible to tailor treatment based on driver mutations.

Considering the success of such approaches in select groups of patients, I am now accepting manuscript submissions for a Special Issue in the journal Children (Impact Factor: 2.835).  I invite you to publish your pediatric leukemia and lymphoma research findings and/or reviews of the literature in this Special Issue focusing on “Children with Leukemia and Lymphoma: Diagnosis and Management” for the continuous advancement of outcomes for pediatric leukemia and lymphoma patients.
