The Canine Cancer Genome Project (CCGP)

Sponsored by Blue Buffalo Foundation and Animal Cancer Foundation, CCGP is a multi-institutional initiative led by TGen, Ethos Discovery, Tufts University, and CHOP. This pioneering effort focuses on genomic and proteomic profiling of three critical canine cancers:

• Osteosarcoma
• B-cell lymphoma
• Soft tissue sarcoma

These cancers have limited genomic data making them prime candidates for deeper study. By mapping their genetic mutations and placing the datasets in the public domain, CCGP enables researchers to identify targeted treatments and develop personalized medicine for both dogs and humans. This research not only improves cancer care for pets but also advances human oncology, offering new hope for patients battling similar diseases.

ACF Comparative Oncology Grant Awards

ACF provides early-stage funding to researchers whose work shows promise in delivering near-term benefits for pets with cancer while advancing human cancer treatment. These one-to-two-year grants focus on establishing proof-of-concept, allowing scientists to attract additional funding and scale their research. Prior grant recipients have contributed to major advancements in cancer therapies, helping to bridge the gap between veterinary and human oncology.

Dedications
Making a memorial or honor gift to Animal Cancer Foundation is a wonderful way to commemorate your loved ones that have been affected by cancer.  Your gift supports comparative oncology research that brings HOPE for a cure for pets and people.

For a minimum donation of $100, ACF will post your pet’s photo (in a JPG format) and your personalized dedication.
