Very proud that the Dutch Cancer Society is willing to fund the FORCE initiative grant: Infrastructure fOr rare Cancers in the NEtherlands: Towards a comprehensive platform for early detection and treatment of rare cancers: FORCE.

FORCE aims to improve treatment outcomes of rare cancers by collecting clinical data on patients with rare cancers and by large-scale biobanking of their tumour tissue and peripheral blood components. Data will be collected retrospectively and prospectively and used to build a data warehouse that provides a comprehensive insight into the long-term biology of each rare cancer type.
