Summary: Funds research to improve understanding of fibrolamellar carcinoma and advance diagnosis, treatment, and potential cures.
Key Information: Collaboration and open sharing of data and resources are conditions of funding.
The Fibrolamellar Cancer Foundation (FCF) supports innovative research on fibrolamellar carcinoma (FLC), a rare liver cancer. Projects may advance understanding of the disease, its diagnosis or epidemiology, or its treatment. FCF is particularly interested in work with a clear path toward novel therapies or clinical trials and, ultimately, a cure.
FCF seeks to make its funding meaningful for patients by working with researchers to shape proposals, avoiding redundant efforts and not displacing existing funding. Its priorities include early-stage ideas with potential patient benefit, foundational resources and knowledge, and research that brings teams together and shares findings, data, reagents, and models early.
