Research Action Plan

The Caring for Carcinoid Foundation (CFCF) created a Research Action Plan to revolutionize carcinoid/NET research and rapidly discover a cure.

Our Research Action Plan brings unprecedented clarity, focus, and collaboration to carcinoid/NET research.

Most importantly, our Research Action Plan provides the path to a cure.

CFCF Needs Your Support

CFCF's Research Action Plan is aggressive in order to revolutionize carcinoid/NET research and rapidly discover a cure.

However, success depends on your generosity. We can only move as fast as our fundraising.

100% of all donations support cutting-edge carcinoid research.

Thank you!

CFCF Leadership Role

The Caring for Carcinoid Foundation (CFCF) is leading the way in carcinoid research. Our leadership role is critical for three reasons:

Today, carcinoid research receives very little NIH funding
Today, carcinoid research is not well coordinated at the national and international levels
Today, carcinoid research is not well integrated between the scientific community, pharmaceutical industry, and government

Therefore, we created an aggressive Research Action Plan based on our:

Board of Scientific Advisors - guidance from highly esteemed leaders in cancer research
Research Road Map - 3 steps to unlock the genetic causes of carcinoid and develop novel, targeted therapies
Research Symposium - annual research symposium to discuss our latest findings and agree on the urgent priorities for carcinoid research

CFCF Collaboration Model

The Caring for Carcinoid Foundation (CFCF) believes in a collaborative approach to discovering a cure for carcinoid. Therefore, we are working hard to integrate five groups into one team:

Patients
Doctors
Researchers
Pharmaceutical Companies
Government (NCI, NIH, FDA, and Congress)

Everyone has a critical role to play, and we welcome your participation. Together, we will work as one team to discover a cure for carcinoid.
