In mid-November, The Max Vincze Foundation embarked on a transformative journey to Boston, participating in the Target Cancer Foundation: Think Tank On Advancing Precision Medicine in Rare Cancers. Precision Medicine stands on the
forefront of revolutionary advancements in cancer treatment, and we're eager to contribute our insights as patient advocates, while learning from esteemed professionals in the field. Together, our collective aim is to expedite research, enhance diagnostics, and refine treatment options for rare cancers.
Breakthroughs at Dana-Farber: NUT carcinoma research unveiled
The results of the research funded by the Max Vincze Foundation are incredibly promising. Dr. French, Dr. Luo and Dr. Shapiro presented their findings, which revealed significant progress in understanding and combatting NUT carcinoma. This
success has opened the door to the possibility of a clinical trial in the near future. While we celebrate this achievement, we remain steadfast in our commitment to making further breakthroughs in the field. This progress is a testament to the
hard work and dedication of the researchers and to the power of your support.
End-of-year giving
As we reflect on the impactful strides made during the Max Your Bet Poker Tournament and the inspiring journey to Boston, we invite you to consider making a difference in the lives of those facing rare cancers through an end-of-year donation. Your contribution allows us to continue our vital work.
Wishing you a joyful holiday season and a New Year filled with hope, health, and generosity.
In memory of Max and with deep gratitude,
The Max Vincze Foundation
