PNOC Foundation - Lose No Child
Brain cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in children. PNOC was built to change that. Your miles will bring together the world’s leading pediatric brain tumor experts to accelerate collaborative research, fuel treatment breakthroughs, and expand access to PNOC's innovative therapies for children fighting brain tumors.
These children can't wait. Pediatric brain cancer moves fast. We need to move faster. The price of delay is measured in children's lives. Despite being the deadliest childhood cancer, research is critically underfunded and relies on philanthropy. With your support, we will change the course of history for children with brain tumors.
In just over a decade, the Pediatric Neuro-Oncology Consortium (PNOC) has built an unprecedented global research and clinical trials network, launching 45 clinical trials and driving two historic FDA approvals for pediatric brain cancer treatments — the first approvals of their kind in more than 50 years. PNOC’s bold, collaborative model unites 300 dedicated brain tumor experts and 43 leading children’s hospitals across the United States, Europe, Asia, South America, the Middle East, and Australia, all working together to rapidly translate the most promising science into safer, more effective treatments for children with brain tumors.
“There will be a day in the near future when I can say to families: This used to be an incurable disease, but through true collaboration we now have effective therapies”— Dr. Sabine Mueller, PNOC Co-Founder and Project Lead
“Since PNOC was established, more progress has been made towards the understanding of the biology of the most highly malignant brain tumors than over the past 40 years combined.” —Dr. Michael Prados, PNOC Co-Founder and Co-Lead
“We are starting to see, for the highest-risk tumors, signs that there are kinks in the armor. We have the team, the science and the ideas; we just need the support to accelerate it.” — Dr. Carl Koschmann, PNOC Co-Principal Investigator
