Children's Cancer Foundation Hong Kong

Funded: 01-01-2015 through 12-31-2015
Funding Type: Beneficiary Outside the U.S.
Institution Location: Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Institution: Children's Cancer Foundation

Through this partnership with the Children's Cancer Foundation, proceeds from St. Baldrick's head-shaving events in Hong Kong support life-saving childhood cancer research in Hong Kong. This grant has funded four projects. The first project is an extension of a previous grant. It aims to accurately measure treatment response by identifying and counting residual leukemia cells in patients following treatment, as a result to avoid under-or over-treatment in the future. The second project explored palliative care needs. Palliative care plays an important role in improving symptom control and psychosocial care for pediatric cancer patients and their families. However, there are no international guidelines specifically made for pediatric palliative care (PPC), with the exception of pain management. A local study is thus needed to explore how PPC can be improved and to identify the essential skills, facilities and services needed in the provision of such care in Hong Kong hospitals and community settings. The third project is a study of a large inter-group randomized trial on whether rituximab (antibody) can add benefit to the current chemotherapy regimen for children and adolescents with high risk B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The fourth project explored cardiac toxicity. Cardiac toxicity is one of the most concerning side effects of anti-cancer therapy. The gain in life expectancy obtained with anti-cancer therapy can be compromised by increased morbidity and mortality associated with its cardiac complications. The field of ‘pediatric cardo-oncology’ has emerged as an essential discipline to provide cardiac specialist care to pediatric cancer patients. In this project multi-modality evaluation on cardiac function is used to monitor the cardiac function of children after cancer therapy.

Gregory Aune M.D., Ph.D.

Researcher Photo

Funded: 09-01-2014 through 08-31-2019
Funding Type: St. Baldrick's Scholar
Institution Location: San Antonio, TX
Institution: University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio

Based on progress to date, Dr. Aune was awarded new grants in 2017 and 2018 to fund additional years of this Scholar award. Survival from pediatric cancer approaches 80%, but long-term survivors have alarming rates of heart disease as adults. Dr. Aune's lab has developed models to study how pediatric cancer therapies affect the heart. This research aims to determine the potential for new chemotherapy agents to damage the heart. These strategies will lead to a better quality of life for children who survive cancer.
