We're so proud of our Team ACCelerate and their efforts in fundraising for ACC research through Cycle for Survival! In fact, we've just added a Chicago team, and they've been doing… instagram.com/p/BsvoNuXFf3Q/…
MSK's Make-An-IMPACT program provides genetic sequencing & testing at no cost to qualifying patients with rare cancers. It's open to patients worldwide and there's no need to travel to MSK. Read more about becoming a volunteer: bit.ly/2BSMIPS
“Traditionally in cancer therapy, we've treated patients based on where their cancer came from, what part of the body. What makes Vitrakvi (#Larotrectinib) unique is that it works regardless of where the cancer came from as long as it has the specific mutation." @DHymanMD

Thank YOU, @DSolit for your unwavering support and dedication to this mom’s (and many other moms’ and dads’) need for information and better treatment options for this complicated, relentless and incredibly rare cancer in our kids.
Amy, I am so inspired by your unwavering support for research on the biologic causes of ACC in pediatric and young adult patients. There is an urgent need for better and less toxic therapies for this rare cancer. I look forward to riding with you @Cycle4Survival. #GetitDone
