The American Cancer Society and Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance partnered to fund multidisciplinary research projects to explore new ways of detecting, treating, and preventing ovarian cancer relapse and for improving quality of life among those diagnosed with ovarian cancer.

The two organizations are committing to a total investment of $8 million to sustain four research teams over four years.

The joint initiative seeks to raise funds to support four multidisciplinary research teams to investigate biological, clinical, and psychosocial factors associated with ovarian cancer outcomes. Once initial funding is acquired, a request for proposal/critical peer review process will select the four research teams.
