Fundraising to support pediatric brain cancer research and clinical trials
PNOC Foundation supports the work of the Pacific Pediatric Euro-Oncology Consortium (PNOC), an international consortium with study sites within the United States, Canada, Europe and Australia. PNOC are dedicated to bringing new therapies to children and young adults with brain tumors. PNOC's goal is to improve outcomes by translating the latest findings in brain tumor biology into better treatments for these children.
Patients with brain tumors that cannot be treated with standard therapy, or that have recurred following standard therapy, are often eligible for clinical trials. Clinical trials provide access to promising new treatments that may not be available outside specialized centers.
