Each year, about 85,000 adolescents and young adults (AYA) between the ages of 15 and 39 are diagnosed with cancer in the United States. According to the National Cancer Institute, this represents about 4% of all new cancer diagnoses. The Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology and the Alliance Foundation Trials (AFT) have several active trials specifically poised to help the AYA population as well as others open to people in the AYA demographic.
