Today, MD Anderson and Texas Children's Hospital launched a transformational collaboration with a singular focus: to end childhood cancer. This new first-of-its-kind joint venture will unite the nation’s largest comprehensive pediatric system and a top pediatric cancer program with the nation’s leading comprehensive cancer center. Through this unique collaboration, we will be able to impact even more young lives through improved patient access with unique clinical trials. “The scope and scale of our combined effort will build the world’s preeminent pediatric cancer center, addressing the growing need for excellent patient care and greatly benefiting children with cancer through increased access to care and to clinical trials,” says MD Anderson President Peter Pisters. Collaborative operations and patient care will launch in early 2026, and it will expand access while offering the nation’s largest complement of pediatric subspecialty care and services to children diagnosed with all types of cancer within a single program. More than 200 Texas Children’s pediatric oncology specialists, who are full-time faculty with Baylor College of Medicine, and over 100 MD Anderson pediatric clinicians and researchers will together advance this transformational care team.
