Gastric Cancer Foundation

Description

• Through education, research and advocacy, Gastric Cancer Foundation is dedicated to improving the lives of people affected by stomach cancer and to working with leading researchers to find a cure. The Gastric Cancer Foundation launched the first Gastric Cancer Registry in 2011, a secure HIPAA compliant database at Stanford Cancer Institute. Aggressive gastric cancer research requires this resource of statistically significant, pertinent information about patients and their families. We are committed to fulfilling our mission through: Research: We fund cutting edge research in stomach cancer. We started the first national Gastric Cancer Registry, a data bank of information and tissue samples to support intensified research and advance understanding of the disease. Registry data is fueling research that will lead to new strategies to diagnose, treat, and defeat stomach cancer. To learn more about our research projects and the first Gastric Cancer Registry please visit: www.gastriccancer.org/focus-on-research. Education: We serve as a comprehensive resource for anyone with stomach cancer, their family, friends or caregivers after a new diagnosis, during treatment and post-treatment. Our website provides a central resource of information to teach people about the disease, treatment options, and how to move forward. To learn more, visit: www.gastriccancer.org/about-gastric-cancer. Advocacy and community: We connect patients and caregivers to a supportive community of people who have experienced similar struggles and can provide hope and encouragement. We strive to increase awareness of stomach cancer through ongoing outreach and communications activities, and a growing number of events held across the United States. We partner with other cancer organizations to increase the collective focus on all types of cancer research, and on stomach cancer in particular. Connect with us and make a difference.
