Melanoma Therapeutics Foundation - Patient
Information
Clinical Trials
The goal of the Melanoma Therapeutics Foundation
is to translate these advances into novel medicines for Melanoma.
Key elements must converge for our mission to be realized.
I. Ideas
We believe that the imagination of the best minds in
Melanoma should be brought together to put forth innovative strategies
for drug discovery and to rapidly translate these discoveries
into development of novel medicines to treat Melanoma as a disease.
To this end, we have recruited leading researchers focused on
Melanoma to serve on our Scientific Advisory Board, including
one of the world renowned clinical directors from the University
of Southern California and the Director of the Comprehensive
Cancer Center at UCSF.
II. Translation
A gap exists between the brightest minds in academia and commercial markets that
impede translation of promising science into therapies.
Based on its nature, academia does not focus on nor has the financial resources
to pursue the actual development of medicines. The Melanoma Therapeutics Foundation
has created a powerful tool to assist Melanoma patients by providing an intuitive
entry point – The Melanoma Gateway – which informs patients of current
clinical trials in which they may be eligible to participate.
