Description
The Fibrolamellar Cancer Foundation (FCF) offers incentive prizes to expand access to research models of fibrolamellar carcinoma (FLC), a rare cancer for which valid experimental systems are scarce. The awards recognize laboratories or organizations that make patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models or stable cell and organoid lines of human FLC available to the research community.
FCF aims to build collections of well-characterized models that reflect the tumors from which they were derived. Wider access to these models can help researchers investigate cancer biology and genetic pathways, screen drugs, and explore potential treatments in preclinical settings.
