Abstract

The European Union-funded COST Action (LEukaemia GENe Discovery by data sharing, mining, and collaboration) LEGEND was an international and multidisciplinary collaboration between clinicians and researchers that covered a range of aspects of genetic predisposition in childhood leukemia. Within this framework, we explored the perception and handling of genetic predisposition in the daily practice of European treatment centers. Herein, we present the results of our questionnaire-based survey. We found that the overall awareness is quite high, and respondents remarked that identification and treatment of the most common predisposition syndromes were present. Nevertheless, high demand for continuous education and routinely updated resources remains.
