Childhood Cancer Survivors Study Childhood Cancer Survivors Study being done by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The Childhood Cancer Survivor Study (CCSS) was created to take advantage of 1) the opportunity to gain new knowledge about the long-term effects of cancer and therapy, knowledge that can be used to help design treatment protocols and intervention strategies that will increase survival and minimize harmful health effects, and 2) the obligation to educate survivors about the potential impacts of cancer diagnosis and treatment on their health, and to provide follow-up care, for example, by creating and implementing programs for the prevention and early detection of late effects. The on-line version of the current survey is unavailable at this time. Please complete the paper version of the questionnaire or call the LTFU center at 1-800-775-2167 to schedule a time to complete the questionnaire by phone.
