"March is Kidney Cancer Awareness Month and you are invited to participate in a day-long global web chat on Facebook in observance of World Kidney Day, March 13. World Kidney Day aims to raise awareness of the importance of our kidneys to our overall health and to reduce the frequency and impact of kidney disease and its associated health problems worldwide.


“What can I do to help?”
Caregivers and family members play an important and prominent role throughout the kidney cancer treatment process. The Kidney Cancer Association is pleased to offer Lotsa Helping Hands as part of our commitment to supporting caregivers of those battling kidney cancer.


Renal Cell Carcinoma is a comprehensive publication that explores the most common type of kidney cancer. More than 60,000 people are diagnosed with RCC each year, and this guide provides valuable information to help them upon diagnosis, including sections on staging, treatment options and side effect management as well as a list of available advocacy and financial resources. Available in PDF and print formats at no charge.

In the News…

Perioperative blood transfusion worsens kidney cancer patients’ survival
Receipt of a blood transfusion significantly reduced cancer-specific (68 vs 92%) and recurrence-free survival (63 vs 88%) at 5-years’ follow-up on univariate analysis.

Forty-nine-month survival in a metastatic renal cell carcinoma patient across six lines of targeted therapy
The survival and prognosis of mRCC patients may thus be significantly improved with the suitable use of newer targeted agents.

Advanced age should not preclude sunitinib use for mRCC
Elderly kidney cancer patients benefit from sunitinib therapy just as much as their younger counterparts, a retrospective analysis of six clinical trials shows.
Visit the Pressroom section at KidneyCancer.org for details on these and other stories. Bookmark the page to stay abreast of cutting-edge cancer research. News items are added each week."

Corinne Feller was a scholar athlete who resided in Montgomery, New York her whole life.  Corinne battled ovarian cancer for 10 months before succumbing to the disease at the young age of 18 in 1999.  Her legacy of generosity, fairness, and social consciousness is the basis of The Corinne Feller Memorial Fund’s mission.  Visit The Corinne Feller Memorial Fund to read more about Corinne’s legacy.

Nicole Feller Lee, Founder of The Corinne Feller Memorial Fund and sister of Corinne, explains, “Corinne stressed the importance of awareness.”  As part of the outreach efforts for awareness, she founded the Cancer Awareness Survivors Team (CAST).  

As she explains, “Learning the symptoms of ovarian cancer is vital because early diagnosis greatly increases chances for survival. Currently, almost 70 percent of ovarian cancer patients aren’t diagnosed until the disease is in its advanced stages. Each year, 27 thousand new cases of ovarian cancer are discovered, and more than 14 thousand women die of the disease. There is currently no effective screening tool for ovarian cancer, making awareness critically important.” Read more about CAST here and please show your support by checking out their table at the
