„Patients and medical professionals working together on equal terms!“

The German Sarcoma Foundation is an "all open organisation" where patients and experts fight together against sarcomas/GIST in future. A visible and impactful organisation within the German health system will evolve that consolidates all different aspects of the German sarcoma/GIST field. Only if patients, carers, professionals, researchers and healthcare professionals concentrate ressources and ways forward there will be enough awareness for rare cancers like sarcomas and GIST, to improve the situation of patients.

 

Die Deutsche Sarkom-Stiftung: Gemeinsam gegen Sarkome

 

Our vision

There will undoubtedly one day be a cure for sarcomas! Until then patients and experts must work together in an engaged, quality-, outcome- and patient-focused fashion as part of an organisation to ensure that more sarcoma patients in Germany survive or live longer and better lives.


Our mission

Engaged innovative research, high-quality diagnostics and therapies offered by sarcoma experts working in interdisciplinary teams and patient-focused support all play an important role in offering sarcoma patients a better prognosis. Patients and experts are to work together in the following six areas:

Area 1:  Sarcoma research
Area 2:  Patient-centred care structures
Area 3:  Quality and accuracy of diagnoses/therapies
Area 4:  Knowledge transfer
Area 5:  Patient support
Area 6:  Sarcoma awareness
