The importance of measuring quality of survival in paediatric oncology trials is recognized. However, capturing neuropsychological outcomes and other aspects of quality of survival in large or multinational trials is challenging. We provide examples of protocols designed to address this challenge in recent clinical trials in the USA and Europe, discussing their strengths, challenges, and opportunities for transatlantic collaboration.
