To be honest, if you’re looking for a resource for guiding treatment, that pulls all studies together to make a recommendation, you’re really not going to find anything better than NCCN. NCCN is created by national experts in medical, surgical and radiation oncology and is updated very regularly, as practice changing studies come out.
Not to say that it is the end all be all of cancer care, but it’s probably the best out there.
If you have any particular questions about what is recommended on there, and why, I could probably point you in the right direction of the clinical trials that established standards of care.
