Sponsor a research team

Researcher Sponsorship: Prostate Cancer

Sponsor the prostate cancer research team

Month after month, your sponsorship accelerates prostate cancer research toward new breakthroughs.


With more than 48,000 new cases in France, prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men. It is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths, behind lung cancer and colorectal cancer. Each year in France, prostate cancer causes nearly 8,700 deaths.

At the time of diagnosis, nearly 10% of patients have bone and/or lymph node metastases for which there is no treatment.

It is for these patients that the high-level expertise of Dr. Anne Chauchereau and Dr. Yohann Loriot’s research team is absolutely essential; it is for them that your sponsorship makes a direct difference.

 

Through your sponsorship, become a driving force for innovation and accelerate prostate cancer research for the direct benefit of patients!

Innovating to improve prostate cancer care: three flagship research programs:

● Identifying the mechanisms of resistance to available treatments (hormone therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapies)

● Studying circulating tumor cells to understand how metastases form

● Developing new treatments

Goal: to develop new therapeutic strategies against metastatic prostate cancer

Benefits for patients:

● Receive the most effective treatment from the time of diagnosis

● Predict the risk of relapse

● Monitor the disease in real time

Annual program budget: €150,000

 

Becoming a sponsor means taking part in a major scientific adventure every day

What if, for just €8.50 a month*, you could help accelerate prostate cancer research?

With a regular donation of at least €25 per month (€8.50 after tax deduction), you become a valued partner of your research team.

Your sponsorship provides essential support for bringing innovative projects against prostate cancer to fruition.

 

Our research on prostate cancer will advance thanks to you

Dr. Yohann Loriot, Medical Oncologist and Deputy Head of the Early-Phase Trials Department (DITEP)

 The regular support we receive from our sponsors is essential… Thanks to their sponsorship, we’ve been able to create a multidisciplinary team entirely dedicated to prostate cancer research. By identifying new targets, we’re developing innovative treatments that we’ll soon be able to make available to the patients we see in our clinics. Our sponsors therefore enable us to move toward our ultimate goal: overcoming resistance in prostate cancer. Sponsoring our research team provides invaluable material and human support, which is essential to achieving our research objectives. 

Dr. Anne Chauchereau, Researcher, Inserm Unit U981

 Sponsorships are extremely valuable… They give us flexibility and allow us to better plan our research projects. Thanks to them, we are able to initiate research whose initial results will demonstrate to the authorities that we deserve funding. For example, sponsorships have enabled us to discover a protein responsible for resistance to chemotherapy. Every year, we look forward to meeting our sponsors and sharing special moments of exchange with them.
