Lee Curell Gynecologic Cancer Research Fund

Treatment for gynecologic cancer has changed dramatically in recent years, thanks to the work of leading BC Cancer experts.

However, there is more work to be done: 30% of women diagnosed with the “Mismatch Repair Deficiency” subtype of endometrial cancer – women like Lee – do not respond to tailored therapies, and we do not yet understand why. We must help find the answer to this critical question to help more women achieve a life beyond gynecologic cancer.

Together, we can help fund this initial study which requires approximately $100,000 in philanthropic funding per year, to provide hope for women facing a gynecologic cancer and for future generations.
