Children's Center for Cancer and Blood Diseases, Children's Hospital Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California.
Background: Low cancer clinical trial (CCT) enrollment may contribute to survival disparities affecting adolescents and young adults (AYAs) (ages 15-39 years). The objective of this study was to evaluate whether differences in CCT availability related to treatment site could explain the low CCT enrollment.
Methods: This prospective, observational cohort study was conducted at an academic children's hospital and its affiliated but geographically separated adult cancer hospital within a National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center.

Children's Center for Cancer and Blood Diseases, Children's Hospital Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California.
Background: Poor enrollment of adolescents and young adults (AYAs) (ages 15-39 years) onto cancer clinical trials (CCTs) may contribute to inferior survival gains compared with children. In this study, the authors assessed whether differences in CCT availability would explain lower CCT enrollment for early AYAs (eAYAs) (ages 15-21 years).
Methods: This prospective, observational cohort study was conducted at a single academic children's hospital.
