As Callan battles his third recurrence of synovial sarcoma, time is of the essence more than ever. This disease is relentless, and each time it reoccurs there are fewer options for treatment. For far too long, the answer to recurrence has been a limited and largely unchanged playbook, and that cannot continue to be acceptable.

And yet, we find ourselves closer than ever to a genuine breakthrough with groundbreaking work in immunotherapies, targeted molecular therapies, personalized medicine — and specifically advance promising avenues like mRNA-based approaches. We have identified a team of leading scientists and clinicians who are ready to develop an mRNA vaccine for synovial sarcoma. This leading-edge treatment is designed not just to fight the disease but to prevent it from coming back at all. The technology exists, the research foundation is established, and the team is in place. What stands between where we are today and a treatment that could change everything for synovial sarcoma patients is funding.

Every dollar contributed to this campaign goes directly toward making that vaccine and other innovative therapies a reality, for Callan and for every patient and family who will face this diagnosis after him. We have never been this close.
