The intervention aims to address stigma at both the patient and...
- The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) received a $2,255,110 Cooperative Agreement award on September 4, 2025 from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) under the Cancer Centers Support Grants (CFDA 93.397) program. The award will support a Cancer Health Disparities SPORE (Specialized Programs of Research Excellence) in Endometrial Cancer, a multi-disciplinary translational research initiative aimed at studying biological and social factors driving disparities in endometrial...
- This Cooperative Agreement award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.394 - Cancer Detection and Diagnosis Research) provides $525,013 to The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center to validate the predictive performance of two blood-based biomarker panels (4-protein and 4-metabolite) for assessing the 1-year risk of lung cancer among individuals with no smoking history. The project aims to develop a composite panel that combines these biomarkers with clinical risk characteristics...
- This $728,043.00 Project Grant award from the Defense Health Agency (DHA) under the Military Medical Research and Development (CFDA 12.420) program supports research by the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center (M.D. Anderson) to delineate the tumor ecology and genomic progression of lobular breast cancers. The 3-year project, running from February 1, 2025 to January 31, 2028, aims to advance the understanding of this specific type of breast cancer through innovative scientific...
- The U.S. Defense Health Agency awarded a $19,100,256 Cooperative Agreement to The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center for the "CONVERGENT SCIENCE CANCER CONSORTIUM FOR IMMUNE CELL ENGINEERING" project under the Military Medical Research and Development (CFDA 12.420) federal grant program. The award period runs from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2029. The funding supports advanced biomedical research aimed at transforming healthcare for military service members, veterans, and...
- The University of Florida was awarded a $589,591 Project Grant from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) under the 21st Century Cures Act - Beau Biden Cancer Moonshot federal grant program (CFDA 93.353). The grant, awarded on February 1, 2025, supports a 5-year research project to determine how social factors influence survival outcomes for Black and Hispanic patients with Hodgkin lymphoma.

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a $2,561,113 Cooperative Agreement to The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center on August 22, 2025 through the Cancer Centers Support Grants (CFDA 93.397) program. This funding will support a comprehensive research project titled "LYMPHOMA OUTCOMES SPORE - ACROSS LYMPHOMA SUBTYPES, AFRICAN AMERICAN (AA) AND HISPANIC PATIENTS EXPERIENCE MARKED DIFFERENCES IN AGE OF ONSET, DISEASE PRESENTATION, TREATMENT, AND SURVIVAL." The project aims to examine multilevel factors influencing lymphoma outcomes, particularly disparities faced by African American and Hispanic patients. Key activities include utilizing the Lymphoma Epidemiology of Outcomes Cohort Study and conducting genomic analyses to identify novel patient subsets and therapeutic targets. The ultimate goal is to develop evidence-based community interventions to improve precision cancer therapy and patient outcomes.
