Acknowledgements
It is with gratitude and appreciation that I herein recognize a number of individuals and organizations that contributed to the research and development of “Securing the Future of Innovation in Cancer Treatment.” This paper was drafted by National Patient Advocate Foundation (NPAF) Executive Vice President Lou LaMarca and Legislative Affairs Director Ian Hunter, with medical and scientific collaboration from Dr. Charles Balch, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center Professor of Surgery and Chairman of NPAF’s Scientific Committee. Their work reflects the collaboration of experts from a variety of health care stakeholder organizations to whom we are most grateful. NPAF acknowledges with appreciation those organizations that have joined the Cancer Innovation Coalition (CIC), established to provide an opportunity for intellectual contributions from a broad representation of stakeholders to prepare the white paper for publication. It is a testament to the professional commitment of the member organizations of the CIC that they are participating in ongoing outreach to their constituencies, educating them on the issues presented in “Securing the Future of Innovation in Cancer Treatments” and engaging in policy-‐related solutions developed by the CIC. We gratefully acknowledge the involvement of the following CIC members: the Association of Community Cancer Centers, Bristol-‐Myers Squibb, the Cancer Support Community, Celgene Corporation, the Colon Cancer Alliance, the Council for Affordable Health Care, Friends of Cancer Research, Genentech, GlaxoSmithKline, Eli Lilly, the National Patient Advocate Foundation, Novartis, the Oncology Nursing Society, Pfizer Inc. and the US Oncology Network. As editor of this publication, it has been a privilege to work with these organizations and our NPAF representatives in the completion of this important document, which highlights specific areas of concern that must be addressed if the United States is to maintain its leadership in research and development of innovative new cancer therapies. This initiative will require all stakeholders to work together to achieve solutions to these areas of concern and to secure “the Future of Innovation in Cancer Treatments,” assuring all people in America of a brighter future as new ways to cure and/or manage the disease are developed.
