Objective: PredictAYA is a multidisciplinary research project to better understand the late effects of cancer treatments on AYAs aged 15-39. A key goal of PredictAYA is to identify and validate genetic biomarkers that explain individual variability in treatment-related organ toxicity, especially reproductive toxicity.
ECO's role: ECO is leading efforts in stakeholder engagement, policy, and collaboration within the Cancer Mission’s 'Quality of Life (AYA)' cluster as well as other AYA European initiatives.

Objective: PanCare4AYA is a pioneering project dedicated to improving long-term care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors across Europe. These survivors face increased risk of long-term complications from their cancer treatments, which can severely affect their quality of life (QoL), mental health, and socio-economic stability. The project addresses these challenges by developing a new international guideline for screening and follow-up, implemented through the AYA Cancer Survivor Screen: a novel, person-centred screening programme.
ECO’s role: ECO plays a key role in enhancing the project’s visibility and impact, driving stakeholder engagement.
