ASCO Member Data


Acceptance of Advertising

ASCO is a nonprofit publisher of scientific and educational works in the field of oncology. As a matter of policy, ASCO will sell advertising space in its Publications when the inclusion of advertising does not interfere with the mission or objectives of ASCO or its Publications.

To maintain the integrity of ASCO Publications, advertising interests (i.e., advertising representatives, Companies, or other advertisers) cannot influence editorial decisions or editorial content. Decisions to sell advertising space are made independently of and without reference to specific editorial content. ASCO’s advertising sales representatives have no prior knowledge of specific editorial content before it is published. Planned placement of print advertising adjacent to (i.e., next to or within) editorial content on the same topic is prohibited. Advertisements that appear on a given page of a Publication’s website may coincidentally be related to the subject of an article, but such juxtaposition must be random.

The ideas and opinions expressed in the Publications do not necessarily reflect those of ASCO. The mention of any company, product, service or therapy in ASCO Publications or in any advertisement in ASCO Publications should not be construed as an endorsement by ASCO of the company, product, service or therapy mentioned. It is the responsibility of the treating physician or other health care provider, relying on independent experience and knowledge of the patient, to determine drug dosages and the best treatment for the patient. Readers are advised to check the appropriate medical literature and the product information currently provided by the manufacturer of each drug to be administered to verify approved uses; the dosage, method, and duration of administration; or contraindications. Readers are also encouraged to contact the manufacturer with questions about the features or limitations of any products. ASCO assumes no responsibility for any injury or damage to persons or property arising out of or related to any use of the material contained in its Publications or to any errors or omissions.

By submitting advertisements for consideration, all advertisers agree to the Principles Governing Advertising in Publications of the American Society of Clinical Oncology and all Rate Card provisions, as amended from time to time.

Agency/Advertiser Requirements

No contract will be held without a signed insertion order. Orders must include the flight dates and special instructions.

All contracts are non-cancellable unless FDA directive to suspend campaign is provided to WTG. Re-rating will apply to cancellations.

ASCO reserves the right to approve all ad creatives that will run on the JCO web site. ASCO reserves the right to reject any creative that does not follow ASCO’s specifications. ASCO reserves the right to change supplied creatives if advertisers preferred creative malfunctions. Advertiser will be notified in order to resend new tags or opt to allow the other supplied tags to run. Advertiser may decide to remove the advertising and forfeit the inventory. ASCO will not reduce cost of contract or make up the inventory missed.

Personally-Identifiable Information (PII) Collection

No Advertising shall include any pixels, tags, Flash containers or any other type of information collection software code (i.e. any such pixel, tag, code or device commonly referred to as a “Pixel”), nor place any beacons, cookies or other information collection devices on the browsers of users. Specifically, advertiser may not use such Pixel to collect any PII with respect to any ASCO user, advertiser will not link any non-PII that it collects to any PII that it may have from any other source, and advertiser will not update any existing profile or create any profile in its database based on any data collected on any ASCO sites, including the fact that someone is an ASCO user or any information derived from the information in the referring URL.

Missed or Incorrect Ads

ASCO is not responsible for incidental or consequential damages for errors in displaying an ad or for failure to publish an ad. Should ASCO fail to publish an accepted ad for which an insertion order was received, ASCO will adjust the advertiser’s or agency’s account accordingly, and such adjustment shall be the advertiser’s sole remedy.

Eligible and Ineligible Advertisement Subject Matter

Health Care Products or Services Referenced in Advertising: Products or services eligible for advertising shall be commercially available for, germane to, effective in, and useful in (a) the practice of medicine, (b) medical education, (c) practice management, or (d) health care delivery. Institutional advertising germane to the practice of medicine and public service messages of interest to physicians may be considered eligible for appearance in ASCO Publications.

Non-Health Care Advertising: In addition to health care products and services as described in No. 1 immediately above, other products and services that are offered by responsible advertisers and that are of interest to physicians and other health professionals are also eligible for advertising.

Equipment, Instruments, and Devices: ASCO determines on a case-by-case basis the eligibility of advertising for equipment, instruments, and devices intended for preventive, diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. Complete scientific and technical data concerning the product’s safety, operation, and usefulness may be required. This data may be either published or unpublished. Samples of equipment, instruments or devices should not be submitted.

CME Programs: Advertisements for Continuing Medical Education (CME) programs will be

considered if the CME sponsor is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) and is an accredited medical school (or hospital affiliated with such a school), a state or county medical society, a national medical specialty society, or other organization affiliated with the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) member boards.

Calls for Patients to Participate in Clinical Trials or Clinical-Trial Matching Services: Advertisements containing such calls will be considered for eligibility if the trial is conducted by a party recognized by ASCO as a clinical research institution and the advertisement states the location of the clinical trial’s registration in one of the clinical trial registries accepted by Journal of Clinical Oncology (available upon request). Acceptance of an advertisement does not indicate approval of the call for patients; the advertiser is responsible for securing any necessary institutional review board approval.

Ineligible Advertising Subject Matter: Alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, and investment opportunities may not be advertised. Advertisements directed at patients or consumers are not eligible for inclusion in ASCO Publications. Advertisements for dietary supplements and vitamin preparations are not eligible unless the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the claim(s) as to the safety and efficacy of the product for a disease state.

Content of Advertisements

FDA and Other Regulatory Requirements: All advertisements for pharmaceuticals, drugs, devices, and other regulated health care products must meet all applicable legal requirements, including regulations of the FDA regarding advertisement and promotion. FDA regulations contain exacting legal controls over the claims that drug advertisers may make for their products and may require advertisements to identify contraindications, side effects, etc. Adherence to FDA and other legal requirements concerning the content of drug advertising is the manufacturer’s responsibility. ASCO’s acceptance of an advertisement is not an indication that the advertisement is legally compliant. ASCO may require an advertiser to furnish a certification of legal compliance. ASCO Publications will allow pharmaceutical manufacturers to run “corporate” or “teaser” ads prior to a product’s official FDA approval. Such advertisements may not mention specific product names.

Advertising Message: An advertisement is the advertiser’s message and should not be considered a reader’s sole source of information regarding a product, service or therapy. All promotional claims must have complete citations of information to allow readers to critically evaluate the documentation.

Statistical or Research Claims: Claims that include statistical statements or clinical studies must be based on studies by qualified individuals and documented by specific references to content published in recognized scientific journals. Articles accepted for publication but not yet published may also be cited, but the name and issue date of the publishing journal must be furnished. Statements based on material approved by the FDA for the package insert are acceptable. Documentation based on scientific exhibits or personal communications are not acceptable.

Advertiser and Product Identified: The advertisement should clearly identify the advertiser of the product, service or therapy offered. In the case of pharmaceutical advertisements, the full scientific (generic) name of each active ingredient must appear. The only exceptions to this requirement are the “confidential reply box” option made available to classified advertisers of physician placement opportunities and the “corporate” or “teaser” type of advertisement mentioned in No. 1 immediately above, which may not state the name of a specific product until it receives FDA approval, but must provide the name of the advertising company.

Price Comparisons: All price-comparison advertising must meet the following guidelines. The source of all prices quoted must be identified within the advertisement, and substantiation must be available to ASCO and readers upon request. If a price comparison is based on the advertiser’s own research, that research must be available to ASCO and readers upon request. All advertising about prices must contain a qualification similar to the following: “Prices will vary depending on the location of purchase and other factors.” For pharmaceutical products, in the absence of standard retail price comparison data, the manufacturer’s suggested price may be used if so identified. For over-the-counter products, price comparisons must be based on manufacturer’s suggested retail or resale price if so identified.

Insurance Coverage: Claims made in advertisements for insurance coverage must conform to the following guidelines. Claims relating to policy benefits, losses covered or premiums must be complete and truthful. Claims made must include disclosure of relevant exclusions and limitations affecting the benefits advertised. Claims incorporating quoted testimonials must meet the same standards as other claims. Each advertisement for insurance products and services must include a statement indicating either the states in which the products or services are available, or the states in which the products or services are not available.

ASCO Name and Marks: Use of a name, logo, trademark, or service mark of ASCO or its affiliates, except in reference citations, is not permitted without the express, written permission of ASCO, and the mere execution of an advertising agreement does not constitute written permission. Any reference to ASCO or its products or services in advertisements, promotional material, or merchandising by the advertiser or the agency is subject to ASCO’s prior written approval in each instance.

Unacceptable Ads: This class of advertisements includes those that contain unfair comparisons or unwarranted disparagement of a competitor’s products or services; deceptive or misleading claims; offensive language or art; attacks or derogations of a personal, racial, sexual, or religious nature; or are demeaning or discriminatory toward an individual or group on the basis of age, sex, race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, physical appearance, or disability.
