Source-derived summary

JCO Oncology Practice (known from 2005 to 2019 as the Journal of Oncology Practice) is a monthly peer-reviewed medical journal covering the mechanics of oncology care. It was established in 2005 and is published by the American Society of Clinical Oncology. The editor-in-chief is Jeffrey Peppercorn (Massachusetts General Hospital).

History

The first issue was managed by then-editor in chief Douglas Blayney (Stanford University), and was published in May 2005 featuring "... material on oncologic best practice methods originated by our colleagues, who may care for patients in office, hospital out-patient, academic, or home-care settings. These pieces may be first-authored, multi-authored, or may result from interviews by our staff." Blayney was succeeded by John V. Cox (University of Texas Southwestern) in 2008.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“JCO Oncology Practice” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Oncology, Practice and journal provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 16, 2026.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
