Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention

Aims & Scope

Cancer is a very complex disease. While many aspects of carcinogens and oncogenes are known, cancer control and prevention at the community level is still an emerging science and discipline. Much more work needs to be done, and many more steps need to be taken before effective strategies are developed. The multidisciplinary approaches and efforts to understand and control cancer in an effective and efficient manner, require highly trained scientists in all branches of the cancer sciences, from cellular and molecular aspects to patient care and palliation. The Asia Pacific Organization for Cancer Prevention (APOCP) and its official publication, the Asia Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention (APJCP), have served the community of cancer scientists very well and intend to continue to serve in this capacity to the best of their abilities. One of the main missions of APOCP is to provide a forum for communication and propagation of original and innovative research findings that have relevance to understanding the etiology, progression, treatment, and survival of patients. This mission has been met with its journals, especially its flagship journal APJCP. The APJCP with its distinguished, diverse, and Asia-wide team of editors, reviewers, and readers, ensures the highest standards of research communication within the cancer sciences community across Asia as well as globally. All research and manuscript, published by the Asia Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention, are under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License. This permits anyone to copy, distribute, transmit and adapt the published work, provided the original work and source are appropriately cited. The APJCP strongly supports the Open Access initiative. Each published article is assigned a CrossRef Digital Object Identifier (DOI), and full texts (HTML, PDF and XML format) of all articles published by the Asia Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention, are freely accessible to everyone immediately after publicati

A twelfth criterion — whether APC fees are clearly disclosed — is not scored here; it is left out of the total rather than counted as a failure. Publication charges appear in the metrics card above.
