Today is World Cancer Research Day, and that’s a very special one for me. You see, down at UCSF Cancer Center, my medical team calls me “a miracle and the future of medicine.” 

I am here today because of decades of cancer research breakthroughs that have made it possible for patients like me to live with cancer. I am writing to ask for your help today because we need to keep the breakthroughs coming for millions of other patients and future patients all around the world.

Conquer Cancer, the ASCO Foundation celebrates the life of Patrick Beauregard. Patrick died September 6, 2020, from colorectal cancer. He was 32. 
 
Patrick became part of our Conquer Cancer family under the care of his doctor, Kimmie Ng, MD, MPH, a  Conquer Cancer Young Investigator Award and Career Development Award recipient.

Children Deserve Cures

As cliché as it sounds, it is my patients who inspire my research every day. Children have an amazing resilience, regardless and in spite of a leukemia diagnosis.

Have you ever wanted to meet one of the patients you're helping?

Well, Donor Appreciation Day is your day...

Follow along today on our Facebook and Instagram channels to meet Patrick. He’s surviving cancer because of breakthroughs in research made possible by your donation to Conquer Cancer.  

The COVID-19 impact on cancer care was immediate.

So was your response to help patients everywhere by supporting the COVID Impacts Cancer fund.

Donors to Conquer Cancer, the ASCO Foundation have committed more than $6 million to support the patient and cancer care community during this global health crisis. 

ASCO experts are leading efforts to provide the information and resources needed to meet the challenges of this pandemic.
