In this special Game Over: c*ncer episode, Cannonball Kids’ cancer Foundation looks back at some of the most powerful conversations with pediatric cancer researchers and physician-scientists from the podcast’s first 50 episodes.
These researchers share the personal experiences that led them into pediatric oncology, childhood leukemia research, brain tumor research, precision medicine, immunotherapy, survivorship, psychosocial oncology, and clinical trials. Many of their research questions began with something they witnessed while caring for a child or family.
The conversation also highlights how pediatric cancer research moves from the clinic to the laboratory and ultimately back to patients through clinical trials. Researchers discuss targeted therapies, reducing treatment toxicity, T-cell therapies, precision-based treatments for pediatric brain tumors, and the importance of developing more effective treatments with fewer lifelong side effects.
But childhood cancer outcomes are influenced by more than biology. The episode explores financial hardship, poverty, access to care, mental health, survivorship, and global disparities. One researcher shares findings showing that approximately one in three children in the studied context was living in a low-income household or experiencing concrete material hardship at diagnosis, raising critical questions about how social conditions can affect pediatric cancer outcomes.
You’ll also hear why nonprofit funding can be so important to scientific progress. Researchers describe how early grants from Cannonball Kids’ cancer Foundation helped validate promising ideas, support young investigators, generate the evidence needed for larger grants, and ultimately help launch clinical trials.
Behind every clinical trial, discovery, and breakthrough are researchers who continue showing up because they believe children deserve better options.
This is pediatric cancer research through the voices of the people doing the work, and a reminder that progress happens one question, one patient, one collaboration, and one breakthrough at a time.
Subscribe to Game Over: c*ncer for more conversations about pediatric cancer research, childhood cancer clinical trials, advocacy, families, survivors, and the people working to create better treatments for kids.
