Executive Order 14355, titled Unlocking Cures for Pediatric Cancer with Artificial Intelligence, is an executive order signed by U.S. President Donald Trump on September 30, 2025.[1][2] The order directs federal agencies to expand the use of artificial intelligence in pediatric cancer research, including improving diagnostics, treatment development, and clinical trial design.[1][3]
Background
The order was issued in the context of increasing pediatric cancer incidence and ongoing federal efforts to expand data-driven research infrastructure, including initiatives focused on large-scale data collection and analysis to improve outcomes.[1]
The order builds on the Childhood Cancer Data Initiative, a 10-year, $500 million federal program focused on collecting and sharing pediatric cancer data to support research.[4] The order was announced alongside an additional $50 million in funding to expand a national childhood cancer data initiative and support research projects applying artificial intelligence to pediatric cance.[5][6][7]
