Improving informed consent for children in cancer treatment studies

In an accompanying JAMA editorial, Jeremy Sugarman, MD, MPH, MA, writes that the study provides "an important foundation for needed discussion and deliberation regarding the efficacy of the current system to protect children as research participants and are useful for measuring the thickness of the ice on which the ethical justification for this research rests." Dr. Sugarman is currently at the Phoebe R. Berman Bioethics Institute at Johns Hopkins University.
