The private sector pilot will test whether identifying shortage risks, promoting transparency around drug inventory and maintaining consistent drug distribution can help patients secure uninterrupted access to seven critical pediatric cancer medications. “Our goal is to build a collaborative, scalable, and transparent ecosystem that will provide effective treatment and improved care for children and families impacted by cancer,” Danielle Carnival, deputy assistant to the president for the cancer moonshot and deputy director for health outcomes at the Office of Science and Technology Policy, said in a statement.
