Abstract
Survival for common, curable childhood cancers in sub-Saharan Africa remains low, averaging approximately 41% at 2 years, ranging from 27% (ALL) to 69% (HL). Treatment abandonment significantly impacts outcomes, affecting nearly 25% of patients. Preventing abandonment could potentially increase average survival to approximately 60%, emphasizing the need for effective intervention strategies.
