Mayo Clinic received a $1,264,356 Cooperative Agreement from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) under the Cancer Cause and Prevention Research program (CFDA 93.393) to support the Lymphoma Epidemiology of Outcomes (LEO) Cohort Study, effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2031. The LEO Cohort Study provides epidemiological research infrastructure and patient outcomes data to address the unmet health needs of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) survivors, a population estimated at over 808,000 individuals as of January 2024. The study maintains enrollment of more than 17,000 NHL participants and delivers longitudinal data collection, biospecimen management, and outcomes assessment to advance understanding of NHL survival trends and inform clinical practice improvements in cancer prevention and treatment strategies. This cooperative agreement supports continuation of research operations originally established in 2002 as the Molecular Epidemiology Resource and subsequently expanded nationally in 2015. The award funds essential cohort management activities, data coordination, and research infrastructure at Mayo Clinic's Rochester, Minnesota facility to sustain this national cancer epidemiology resource and enable ongoing investigation into factors affecting NHL patient outcomes and quality of life following treatment.Federal Cooperative Agreement Summary
