Description

The Ewings sarcoma family of tumors (ESFTs) is the second most common cancer of bone and soft tissue in children, and has a 20-30% overall survival rate in those children with widespread disease. Dr. Dela Cruz is working to understand the pathways involved in the development of ESFTs, which will be essential to discovering new molecular targets to treat and cure these patients.
