Chordomas are defined by overexpression of TBXT (brachyury), an essential transcription factor that has proven difficult to drug directly.
By targeting TBXT-derived peptides presented by MHC (pMHC), we aim to unlock a powerful new paradigm for chordoma and other TBXT-driven cancers.

We’re thrilled to announce a new joint grants program with @TheMarkFdn offering awards of up to $500K to help pave the way for chordoma patients to benefit from emerging treatment approaches that target cell surface proteins or peptides presented by MHC molecules on cancer cells. This is a major area of opportunity that builds on the results of several projects we’ve supported in recent years to identify surface targets.
Researchers: the request for proposals will open on Monday, October 26. More info: chordomafoundation.org/researchers#op…

Thank you, @PatrickHwuMD, for your leadership and collaboration!
We need better therapies for #osteosarcoma, and that starts with bringing brilliant minds together. Grateful to @TheMarkFdn and @OSInstitute for convening such an outstanding group of investigators to challenge assumptions, spark new ideas and advance hope for patients who eatments.
