A letter from NF Legacy Society member Susan Salpeter:
Dear CTF friends,
I am so impressed with the work CTF is doing to improve the lives of those living with this condition. I was diagnosed with NF almost 60 years ago when there was limited knowledge and no treatment options.
Today, the Foundation has made a $1 million investment in NFlection Therapeutics’ Phase 2b clinical trial of NFX-179, a topical (on the skin) MEK inhibitor for patients living with cutaneous neurofibromas, a trial in which I am proud to have participated. They are also funding a $1.8 million research collaboration between the NIH and Washington University studying a liquid biopsy for the early detection of MPNST, and investing more than $3 million in gene therapy research for NF1 and NF2-related schwannomatosis (NF2-SWN).
I am personally 
so proud to be a part of these efforts. To continue to help change the landscape of NF research, I have included the Children’s Tumor Foundation in my estate plans.
I hope you will join me by doing the same. We owe it to those living with NF to support CTF’s vision for treatments and, ultimately, cures.
