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.
