PCF Research Enterprise
THE PCF RESEARCH ENTERPRISE IS A PEER-REVIEW RESEARCH FUNDING PROGRAM THAT PROVIDES FUNDING TO 3300 SCIENTISTS CONDUCTING INNOVATIVE RESEARCH PROJECTS AT MORE THAN 255 LEADING CANCER CENTERS AND UNIVERSITIES. PRIORITY IS GIVEN TO HIGH-RISK, HIGH-RETURN PROJECTS WITH THE GREATEST POTENTIAL TO IMPROVE SURVIVAL AND THE OVERALL QUALITY OF LIFE FOR MEN WITH PROSTATE CANCER. THE CORNERSTONE OF THE PCF RESEARCH ENTERPRISE IN 2023 WAS OUR CHALLENGE AWARDS PROGRAM AND NEW TACTICAL AWARDS PROGRAM, WHICH SUPPORT CROSS-DISCIPLINARY TEAMS OF INVESTIGATORS CONDUCTING PIONEERING RESEARCH TO ADDRESS CRITICAL UNMET MEDICAL NEEDS FOR PROSTATE CANCER PATIENTS. IN 2023, PCF FUNDED 19 MULTI-YEAR TEAM RESEARCH PROJECTS THAT EACH OFFER HIGH POTENTIAL FOR IMPROVED DETECTION, ENHANCED QUALITY OF LIFE AND HIGHER SURVIVAL RATES.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2023 – Dec 31, 2023Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$23.5MProstate Cancer Awareness and Education
