2025-06-24 21:06 Last Updated At:21:25

The new interactive guideline tool represents a major format change for gold-standard NCCN Guidelines.

PLYMOUTH MEETING, Pa., June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN®)—an alliance of leading cancer centers—announces a new, interactive digital delivery format for the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®).  The NCCN Guidelines® are the recognized standard for clinical decision making and policy in cancer care and are the most thorough and frequently updated clinical practice guidelines available in any area of medicine. They assist in the decision-making process of individuals involved in cancer care and prevention—including physicians, nurses, pharmacists, payers, patients and their caregivers—with the ultimate goal of improving patient care and outcomes.

The new NCCN Guidelines Navigatorâ„¢ presents the evidence-based, expert consensus-driven recommendations from the NCCN Guidelines in a virtual platform that allows users to search and navigate more easily. Access to the NCCN Guidelines Navigatorâ„¢ is available with a free NCCN account for non-commercial use. Features of the NCCN Guidelines Navigatorâ„¢ include:

  • Seamless movement throughout a guideline using table of contents or search features
  • Advanced search capabilities and the ability to use filters
  • Highlighter feature for relevant content pathways
  • Color-coded navigation links
  • Easily viewed footnotes linked directly from the pathways
  • Direct links to NCCN Guidelines for Patients®
  • Direct links to the relevant NCCN Chemotherapy Order Templates (NCCN Templates®) for subscribers
  • Zoom capabilities
  • Mobile friendly
  • Built-in tutorial and frequently asked questions
  • Links to PDF format of the guideline

"This is truly the future of cancer treatment guidance," said Crystal S. Denlinger, MD, Chief Executive Officer, NCCN. "Cancer prevention, screening, treatment, and supportive care that follows internationally-trusted guidelines has been shown time and again to improve outcomes for people with cancer. I'm proud that we've achieved our ambitious goal for increasing the accessibility and usability of the content from the NCCN Guidelines without compromising any quality."

The NCCN Guidelines Navigatorâ„¢ recently began beta testing for colon and prostate cancers. That was followed by rectal cancer, which was published on June 16, 2025. NCCN will continue to publish NCCN Guidelines Navigatorâ„¢ for additional cancer types until all 88 NCCN Guidelines are available in the new format. The original pdf format will also remain available for all NCCN Guidelines. Both forms will feature the most up-to-date information users rely upon for daily use in cancer care and prevention.

People who access the NCCN Guidelines in any format, including via the NCCN Guidelines Navigator™, can earn CE/MOC credit through the new NCCN Guidelines in Practice™—which was just announced earlier this month.

NCCN also plans to continue to optimize this new tool, including adding artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities to make searching even more conversational and intuitive, plus increased integration with NCCN's other resource offerings.

"It has been 30 years since we first launched the NCCN Guidelines; since then, they have come to be used by millions of people worldwide every year, including more than 90% of U.S. and global physicians surveyed," said Dr. Denlinger. "Cancer care is becoming increasingly effective but also more complicated every year. The new NCCN Guidelines Navigator tool simplifies the evolving evidence from the latest research, leverages expertise to put it into context, and places it at the point-of-care for decision-making support and education. This new resource integrates everything we do to support people with cancer and their care providers by defining and advancing quality, effective, equitable, and accessible cancer care and prevention so all people can live better lives."

DUBAI, UAE, Dec. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- On the evening of December 14 local time, fireworks illuminated the Dubai night sky, casting a final glow over the venue as the 2025 Asian Youth Para Games drew to a close amid waves of applause. Serving as the event's official and exclusive mobility partner, Chery applied its inclusive technological expertise to support the Games from start to finish, creating numerous memorable highlights. These ranged from the joint opening announcement by the AiMOGA robot Mornine and APC Chairman Mr. Mijad, to the groundbreaking robot-led award ceremonies; from pre-competition donations of sun protection gear to all athletes, to the continuous shuttle and escort services provided by the TIGGO family fleet throughout the event. Chery was fully committed to facilitating both the preparation and the successful execution of the Games. As Zhu Shaodong, Executive Vice President of Chery International, noted in his closing ceremony address: "Chery remains guided by the principle of 'In somewhere, For somewhere, Be somewhere' in contributing to global sustainable development. Supporting sports events as a way to give back to society is both an honor and a point of pride for Chery."

In meeting its ESG commitments, Chery has established multiple world-class "green factories," driving the ongoing transformation toward sustainable manufacturing. The company also collaborates with international organizations, including the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), to engage in ecological initiatives such as seagrass conservation. At the same time, Chery maintains a long-term commitment to the well-being of people with disabilities and children, having worked with UNICEF to support education for nearly 40 million children globally. Furthermore, Chery has proactively joined forces with the Kazakhstan National Paralympic Committee and the Asian Paralympic Committee to carry out various inclusive programs. During the Chery Brand User Summit in October 2025, Chery once again took the lead in forming the ESG Global Alliance, sharing sustainable development initiatives with its worldwide dealer network and extending responsible practices across the entire value chain.

As the Games draw to a close, Chery will forge ahead—with technology as its driving force and responsibility as its cornerstone—striving not only for commercial success but also to build a more inclusive and courageous future for society at large.
