20% sarcomas are ultra-rare, meaning they have an incidence of 1 per1,000,000 or less. For patients facing these diagnoses, rarity often means less research dollars, limited treatment options, and too few answers. SFA helps ensure that all sarcoma patients receive the care they deserve.

By providing seed funding for translational science, SFA helps researchers take bold, high-risk ideas from concept to discovery. This turns promising science into the preliminary data that opens doors to federal funding and, ultimately, better therapies for patients who urgently need new options.

Support from SFA enabled Dr. Karen Pollok, PhD, to test a promising combination therapy for osteosarcoma that has spread or no longer responds to standard treatments. Because these drugs are already used in other cancers, this research could accelerate safer, more effective treatments.
