The primary objective of the Midwest Children's Cancer Center is to reduce the incidence of and mortality from childhood cancers. This is approached by: 1) providing the best possible patient care (diagnostic and therapeutic); 2) education of medical and non-medical audiences as to the types of, treatments for, and availability of care for different childhood cancers; and 3) clinical and laboratory research. Investigators at the Cancer Center include specialists in pediatric oncology, surgery, orthopedic surgery, neurosurgery, radiology, radiation therapy, pathology, neurology, psychology and nursing. All new patients are discussed at a multidisciplinary Tumor Board. The children are then treated on Pediatric Oncology Group (POG) or institutional protocols. Results are analyzed and reported regularly. The purposes for the Midwest Children's Cancer Center's participation in POG are: 1) to enhance the probability of achieving the above objectives by collaboration with other institutions in the design and execution of clinical protocols; and 2) to evaluate, through laboratory investigations, aspects of tumor biology which result in successful or unsuccessful therapy. Pediatric tumors are relatively rare. The POG is composed of more than 40 member institutions. By pooling resources, biologic and therapeutic studies on these uncommon tumors are facilitated. Similar collaboration permits more rapid development of new drugs. In addition, participation in a common milieu promotes dissemination of information between institutions and investigators. If all children with cancer receive the best possible care, morbidity and mortality will be minimized.

中西部儿童癌症中心的主要目标是减少 儿童癌症的发病率和死亡率。 这是接近 通过： 1) 提供尽可能最好的患者护理（诊断和治疗） 治疗）； 2) 对医学和非医学受众进行教育 不同童年的护理类型、治疗方法和可获得性 癌症； 3) 临床和实验室研究。 调查人员在 癌症中心包括儿科肿瘤学、外科、 骨科、神经外科、放射科、放射治疗、病理学、 神经学、心理学和护理学。 所有新患者均在会议上进行讨论 多学科肿瘤委员会。 然后孩子们接受儿科治疗 肿瘤学组 (POG) 或机构协议。 对结果进行分析并 定期报告。 中西部儿童癌症中心参与的目的 POG的作用是：1）增强实现上述目标的概率 通过与其他机构合作设计和执行 临床方案； 2）通过实验室调查评估， 导致成功或不成功的肿瘤生物学方面 治疗。 儿童肿瘤相对罕见。 POG由以下部分组成 40多个成员机构。 通过汇集资源、生物和 促进了对这些罕见肿瘤的治疗研究。 相似的 合作可以更快地开发新药。 此外， 参与共同环境可促进信息传播 机构和研究者之间。 如果所有儿童都患有癌症 接受最好的护理，发病率和死亡率将降至最低。
