Over 1000 children with cancer have been enrolled across Australia since 2017. ZERO is now in the process of being expanded so that, by the end of 2023, all children diagnosed with cancer in Australia will have access to precision medicine.
Involving all paediatric oncology units across Australia, as well as 19 national and international research partners, ZERO brings together leading clinicians and researchers around Australia and internationally, embracing research-driven clinical care to achieve better outcomes for children with cancer, now and into the future.
