About Cancer Letter Inc.

Cancer Letter Inc., doing business as The Cancer Letter, operates as a for-profit publisher and institutional subscription provider to the National Cancer Institute, competing as a prime contractor on full-and-open purchase orders with no set-asides. Based in Washington, DC, the company publishes a weekly online periodical covering cancer research, drug development, and health policy, distributed primarily through institutional subscriptions to federal research agencies classified under NAICS 513120 (Periodical Publishers).

The company's federal customer base is singular: 12 of 15 recent awards (93% by count, 86% by combined potential value of $894 thousand) come from the National Cancer Institute, with two additional awards from the National Institutes of Health. This extreme concentration reflects the company's core mission as a specialized cancer research publisher serving a focused customer. The most recent and largest transaction is a five-year institutional subscription purchase order awarded by NCI on June 16, 2026, valued at $250 thousand and extending through May 31, 2031, following a prior three-year subscription agreement awarded March 21, 2022, with a $300 thousand ceiling and options running through March 20, 2027. Both procurements used simplified acquisition procedures under FAR Part 13 without competition or set-asides. A single award (combined potential value $300 thousand) faces completion within the next twenty-four months, representing modest recompete exposure.

Cancer Letter Inc. operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) with no recorded subcontract footprint. The company's total recent award count is 15, spanning from 2001 through June 2026, with infrequent activity outside the 2022–2026 window — one award in 2018, one in 2019, and one in 2021, reflecting episodic multi-year subscription renewals rather than continuous task-order activity. Combined obligated dollars across all federal awards total $723 thousand against a combined potential value of $1 million.
