[The present status and prospects for clinical oncology in Japan].
The present status and prospects for clinical oncology in Japan were reported. Clinical oncology in Japan is still developing, although some research has attained the international level. This is because there are some problems in ethics of clinical trials, education of medical oncologists in medical schools, systems of cancer-related associations and the research system of clinical trials for cancer treatment. The education of medical oncologists and improvement of the research system in clinical oncology are required in order to develop clinical oncology in Japan.
