Receipt of a submission is acknowledged within 2 weeks. Articles deemed appropriate for the Cancer Practice readership are sent to three reviewers, at least one of whom is not a member of the authors' discipline. Decisions for publication are made by the Editor of Cancer Practice on the basis of the peer reviews. Manuscripts for Departments are critiqued by the Department Editors. Authors are responsible for reviewing and approving page proofs before publication.
Final acceptance is by the Editor of Cancer Practice.
Only original manuscripts not published or submitted for publication elsewhere are eligible for consideration. Copies of any material containing similar information that the author has published elsewhere or that is under consideration for publication elsewhere should be submitted along with the manuscript. Submissions should comprise one original and three photocopies of the manuscript, along with three sets of photocopies of art and photographs. To ensure a blind peer review, no information that might identify the authors is permitted on the text pages of the photocopies. All authors will receive and be required to sign a copyright transfer and warranty agreement.
