We are excited to announce a groundbreaking partnership with The Mark Foundation for Cancer Research (MFCR). Together, we are launching a global initiative to fund innovative research projects exploring the complex connection between aging and cancer.

Later this month we will be inviting leading scientists from across the globe to submit novel research proposals that are focused in this field.

Selected projects will receive $500,000 in funding over three years, during which time, SWCRF along with MFCR, plan to invest up to $11 million into specific aging-cancer research.

This significant financial commitment underscores our organization’s shared dedication to advancing pioneering science and tackling cancer’s toughest challenges.

Since, aging is the leading cause of cancer development and progression, as well as poses many treatment challenges, this area of research is crucial to combating the global rise in cancer incidence and improving outcomes for all cancer patients.

These research projects will address critical topics such as:

• Identifying actionable biomarkers that predict aging/cancer risk.
• Understanding how aging impacts tumor growth.
• Exploring the role of the aging immune system in cancer treatment.
• Investigating how metabolism and genetics contribute to cancer development.
• Studying how premature aging increases cancer risk for younger adults.

By supporting this program, SWCRF is further cementing its international leadership in addressing one of the most urgent challenges in cancer prevention and treatment today.

Your continuing support makes this possible. Please consider donating today to help fund this and other vital research programs.

Let’s work together to end cancer in our lifetime.

Warm regards,

Samuel Waxman, MD

CLINICAL BREAKTHROUGHS

New Treatment for Liver Cancer Slows Progression and

Improves Survival

A recent study by SWCRF-investigator, Dr. Josep Llovet (Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai), and colleagues has discovered a new treatment approach for unresectable,

non-metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)—a form of liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed and has not yet spread to other parts of the body. Around 45,000 cases of HCC are diagnosed yearly in the US and about 1M globally.

According to their research, published in The Lancet (January 2025), combining transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE) with the drugs lenvatinib (a targeted therapy) and pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) significantly improved patient outcomes compared to the placebo group.

Specifically, patients receiving this combination therapy experienced slower tumor progression and a trend towards overall higher survival rates. Additionally, the drug combination was well-tolerated, with manageable side effects, supporting its potential as a viable treatment option in patients with intermediate HCC.

“SWCRF has been instrumental in supporting the development of the HCC program at Mount Sinai since 2004. Their commitment to funding innovative cancer research has allowed us to make these significant strides in understanding and treating this devastating disease. This breakthrough would not have been possible without their continued support”, said Dr Josep M Llovet, Professor of Medicine and Director of the Liver Cancer Program at the Ichan School of Medicine.

This remarkable improvement marks the first clinical breakthrough in treating this challenging and often fatal form of cancer in more than 20 years.

a result and most of all SHARE THE LOVE WITH ALL.

We wanted to include a Good News Planet post that represents for us, Peace in the Middle East. For the Jewish Community Shabbos represents the Sabbath, the day of rest and prayer from Friday Sundown to Saturday Sundown. For the Muslim Faith the Sabbath is also Friday, as remember both religions were created by blood brothers, so there are many similarities.  For Christianity the Sabbath, the Lord’s Day is celebrated on Sunday. 

So the following thoughts:

May you be blessed with love in your heart, happiness in your home, peace in your soul, and joy in your life! We share with our brothers and sisters Jewish, Muslim, Christian, and ALL, as once again, we are ALL HOMOSAPIEN BROTHERS AND SISTERS. AMEN & AWOMEN.

But as has been often said, every cloud brings with it a silver lining. Being forced to live in this new reality, many of us are discovering new things, and finding new ways to express ourselves.

Carol is definitely among those who are finding new artistic outlets, as she has used the lockdown to venture into the new realm of writing poetry. And her poems have now been collected and published in a new book!

There was a special launch event for Carol’s new literary creation. We’d love it if you could join; all of the information is below…
