A multidisciplinary colloquium—Developing Strategies for Reducing Cancer Treatment-Related Toxicities and Symptoms—was held to identify the challenges that have prevented progress in reducing cancer-treatment-related symptom burden and to develop strategic steps to meet these challenges. This Perspectives article summarizes the recommendations of the panel, and includes suggestions for improving cancer care in the clinic and developing a policy and advocacy strategy to expand research on toxicity.
