Helps with a flight to a trial site

For a chordoma patient with advanced disease, one of the hardest things to hear is that further surgery or radiation are no longer good options.
Thankfully, Chordoma Foundation scientists and partners are identifying more and more promising systemic therapies that may be able to meaningfully extend the lives of patients at this treatment crossroads — drugs that have entered, or will soon enter, clinical trials.
Chordoma patients are often eager to participate in new clinical trials. But frequent travel is often required to trial sites, which are typically not located near patients' hometowns. The cost associated with traveling to clinical trials is a barrier that’s challenging, if not impossible, for many eligible patients to overcome.
People in our community who could benefit from new clinical trials shouldn’t be limited by lack of ability to pay for travel. So we’ve launched a special fund to help ease their struggle, and ensure these trials — which will generate crucial knowledge about how best to treat this disease — can be a success.
Our gratitude goes out to these patients and their families, whose effort to participate will benefit many future patients. And we appreciate those of you who will help shoulder their burden by donating today:
