THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR CANCER RESEARCH is now accepting applications for the Stand Up To Cancer-Cancer Research U.K. Translational Research Fellowship, which will provide up to four grants for postdoctoral or clinical research fellows, each up to $315,000, over a four-year period.

This grant opportunity is provided by SU2C and Cancer Research U.K. and is the first joint research project resulting from the collaboration between the two groups announced in 2012.

The fellowship will provide four years of research support to early-career investigators in the U.S. and U.K. Research projects must be translational in nature and address critical problems in cancer with the potential to deliver benefit to patients.

The proposed work must be performed in two phases, one in the U.S. and one in the U.K. Each phase must be one to three years in length, and the total support period for this fellowship is a maximum of four years.

Project proposals are due by noon ET July 28, via proposalCENTRAL.

At the 2026 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology in Chicago, results from the phase III HARMONi-6 trial were presented at the plenary session and published simultaneously in The Lancet. The HARMONi-6 trial tested a novel bispecific antibody that engages PD-1 and VEGF (ivonescimab), given with platinum-doublet chemotherapy to patients with previously untreated advanced squamous non-small cell lung cancer.
