Overview
The Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to saving lives and reducing the burden of disease in low-and middle-income countries, while strengthening the capabilities of governments and the private sector in those countries to create and sustain high quality health systems that can succeed without our assistance. For more information, please visit: http://www.clintonhealthaccess.org Overview of the CHAI Indonesia Paediatric Cancer Work Paediatric Cancer remains an increasing challenge with only 20-30% of survival children in low and middle income countries, compared to more than 80% in high-income countries. The inequity to care access, late diagnosis & treatment and high treatment abandonment are common in pediatric cancer medication. In Indonesia, WHO-IARC estimates that 7,574 children under the age of 14 developed cancer in 2020, with the majority being leukaemia cases (30%). Despite Indonesia having developed a population-based cancer registry in 14 provinces since 2016, only about 10 hospital centers have hospital based pediatric cancer registry, and the coverage and data quality remain low, meaning many pediatric cancer cases are unreported. This disparity in pediatric cancer is unacceptable considering that most childhood cancers can be effectively treated with affordable, generic medicines, even if they are detected late. This huge outcome disparity indicates that there is a significant opportunity to save lives if treatment access can be improved.
