Guidelines Endorsement Request Form

Instructions:

Thank you for your interest in submitting your organization’s guideline for potential ASCO endorsement. ASCO will consider endorsing clinical practice guidelines developed by other guideline development organizations when relevant to the mission and interests of ASCO and its membership.


Please complete the form below and attach the following documents at the bottom:

• Copy of the guideline

• Conflict of Interest Policy/procedures followed during guideline development

• Additional supporting documents as appropriate


Contact guidelines@asco.org with questions.

1. Endorsement

    a. It is preferred that no revisions are made to the recommendations, however, discussion points, qualifying statements, or additional commentary may be added as part of the ASCO endorsement. It is understood that endorsement only requests preclude consideration of adaptation by ASCO

    b. It is understood that fewer endorsement only requests will be selected for ASCO endorsement since there needs to be unanimous strong agreement with the recommendations among three initial content expert reviewers.

2. Endorsement or Adaptation

    a. Either endorsement or adaptations to the recommendations are acceptable, if needed. If recommendation changes are made, the product will be considered an adaptation rather than an endorsement. Discussion points, qualifying statements, or commentary may be added to the draft.

    b. It is understood that more endorsement or adaptation submissions will be selected for ASCO development since there does not need to be unanimous strong agreement with the recommendations among two initial content expert reviewers.
