In September 2009 the Trust decided to fund
four projects in this first programme of work. The total investment
will be approximatel;y £250,000 over two years.
There are two projects at the Institute of
Cancer Research (part of the University of London and associated with
the Royal Marsden Hospital), and one at the University of Sheffield.
These projects are looking at rhabdomyosarcoma, innovative techniques
in limb surgery, and the causes of sarcoma.
The fourth project is a clinical study at
the Royal Marsden Hospital looking at the quality of life of patients
being treated advanced sarcoma. This will inform the development
of clinical practice and also gather valuable data to help with health
economic analysis of new treatments.
