Abstract

The "Groupe Onco-hématologie Adolescents Jeunes Adultes" (GO-AJA) born in 2012 is a French collaborative group. It focuses on heterogeneity and unmet needs for AYA with cancer. This article highlights GO-AJA's achievements and future prospects, emphasizing its role in structuring a professional national network, improving AYAs' comprehensive care and strengthening the roles of coordinating nurses. It also covers AYA multidisciplinary tumor boards, guidelines edition, education and training. Challenges persist, including limited AYA clinical trials and territorial inequalities in care access and team resources. Future success hinges on increased medical community awareness, stakeholders investment, and European collaborations.
