This study investigates the occurrence of late complications in individuals who have undergone treatment for childhood cancer. Childhood cancer refers to cancer diagnosed in individuals aged 21 or younger. The study aims to identify key adverse events, which are unexpected medical issues that occur during or after treatment.

Participants will be monitored for specific health problems that may arise after their initial cancer therapy. These include heart problems, heart attacks, strokes, bone death, and new cancers. The study will help to understand how often these issues occur and who might be more at risk.

  • Who can participate: Participants must have been diagnosed with primary cancer at age 21 or younger and be actively followed by a Children's Oncology Group institution. They must also have developed specific adverse events like cardiac dysfunction or ischemic stroke after starting cancer therapy. Those who have had a non-autologous hematopoietic cell transplant are excluded.
  • Study details: Participants will be observed for the development of specific health conditions following their cancer treatment. These conditions include heart problems, strokes, and new cancers. No medication or placebo is involved in this study.
