Ohio Cancer Research is an independent statewide, nonprofit organization dedicated to the cure and prevention of the many forms of cancer and the reduction of its debilitating effects through aggressive basic seed money research, cancer information and awareness. Ohio Cancer Research is not affiliated with any other organization. Individual researchers have been or are being funded at The Ohio State University, Nationwide Children’s Hospital, Case Western Reserve University, The Cleveland Clinic, University Hospitals of Cleveland, MetroHealth Medical Center in Cleveland, University of Toledo, Bowling Green State University, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, University of Cincinnati, University of Dayton, Ohio University, Wright State University and the former Hipple Cancer Research Center in Dayton. Over $18 million has been spent on cancer awareness and seed money research projects. Of that amount, nearly $8 million in seed money provided to researchers by Ohio Cancer Research has generated over $248 million in new money from other sources to continue basic cancer research on projects initially funded as well as translational clinical trials at institutions including University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center, The Cleveland Clinic, The Ohio State University, and Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center.

Ohio Cancer Research Special Events are presented to raise funds for seed money cancer research and to increase awareness of the importance of early detection in saving lives. See your doctor for regular checkups.

Remember to stay fit and get frequent checkups because you are the first line of defense in the fight against cancer. When detected early, most cancers can be put into remission and even cured.

Remember, early detection saves lives.
