Pediatric Cancer and Blood Disorders Center
One Nationally Recognized Level of Excellence, Three Locations
The Nemours Children's Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders (NCCBD) helps children and young adults not just overcome cancer and blood disorders — we help them truly thrive.
As one of the largest pediatric cancer centers with locations across Delaware and Florida, we combine leading-edge research, advanced treatments, and compassionate care for kids and families. Our expertise and outcomes earn us consistent recognition from U.S. News & World Report as one of the nation's top children's hospitals for cancer care.
Our team has pioneered innovative treatments in areas like neuroblastoma and leukemia. We’re a national hub for treating sickle cell disease. We have one of the nation's highest enrollment rates in National Cancer Institute trials. And, as one of only three kids-only National Cancer Institute Community Oncology Research Programs (NCORP), we offer access to the most promising clinical trials and therapies you can’t get everywhere.
With state-of-the-art treatments — including stem cell transplantation, immunotherapy, and proton therapy — and survivorship programs, fertility preservation, and other specialized support, we address every part of a family’s journey. We’re here for your child from diagnosis and well beyond.
