Patient Advocates from NCCN Guidelines Panels Share Their ‘United by Unique’ Stories for World Cancer Day

NCCN has long worked to advance people-centered cancer care. The organization publishes the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®)—evidence-based expert consensus-driven recommendations for prevention, treatment, and supportive care. The expert panels tasked with maintaining these recommendations provide updates at least once every year. The panels are made up of multidisciplinary subject matter experts, including patient advocates who help make sure their perspectives inform treatment practices. Some of those advocates are sharing their unique stories in honor of this year’s World Cancer Day.
