Year in cancer

2014 in cancer

What the index holds for 2014: regulatory decisions dated that year, studies first posted that year, PubMed output per cancer for that year and the registry observations whose reference year it is. Every figure is a count of dated source records — nothing is estimated.

Regulatory

Approval records dated 2014 (155)

Approved, accelerated or conditional records by authority; original applications and records naming one cancer are listed first. One record is one decision for one application or product identifier.
