Patients

People living with cancer need new advances. Unleash the possibilities.

Patients with cancer are looking to us to develop solutions and create new paths to cancer breakthroughs.

We focus on the science –
and the people

We focus on both solid tumors and hematological malignancies. We know the need is great, which is why we scrutinize promising molecules from every angle to unlock their full potential with the goal of developing transformative therapies that enable patients with cancer to lead better, longer lives.

Desmoid tumors are rare, aggressive soft-tissue tumors characterized by locally invasive growth, significant morbidity, and a high rate of recurrence.
About 30-50% of people with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) develop plexiform neurofibromas (PN), which are peripheral nerve sheath tumors that can cause significant pain, disfigurement, and functional impairment.

Expanded access & compassionate use

What are the treatment options?

Expanded access, which is also sometimes called “compassionate use,” is a potential pathway for a patient with an immediately life-threatening condition or serious disease to gain access to an investigational medical product for treatment outside of a clinical trial setting, when no comparable or satisfactory alternative therapeutic options are available and prior to its commercial availability.

Does SpringWorks have an expanded access / compassionate use program?

In cases when a patient may not qualify for a clinical trial, there may be no trials available, or a patient has exhausted all available treatment options, SpringWorks may be able to provide access to eligible patients through our Expanded Access Program.

How
it works

Requests for access to a SpringWorks investigational therapy must be made voluntarily by the patient’s treating physician. Requests cannot be made directly by an individual patient or a patient’s parent/legal guardian or caregiver.

To request expanded access or compassionate use, physicians should send an email to medinfo@springworkstx.com.

I was told that a desmoid tumor is ‘benign,’ but the pain it causes has changed my life. It pushes on my ureters and kidneys and has wrapped itself around some of my muscles. The shooting pains sometimes leave me unable to physically move at times, much less take care of my young children.”

Patient advocacy

Patient advocacy organizations are instrumental in helping us deepen our connections with and learn from the community. We are committed to building lasting relationships with organizations that share our vision and goals to change the lives of the people we aim to serve.  

The Desmoid Tumor Research Foundation (DTRF)’s mission is to empower and unite everyone committed to finding answers for the desmoid tumor community. 
Rein in Sarcoma is a resource for people and families impacted by sarcomas.
SARC (Sarcoma Alliance for Research Through Collaboration), an international collaborative research organization founded by the sarcoma research community itself, is committed to the finding a cure of for all sarcoma patients.
The Children’s Tumor Foundation’s (CTF) mission is to drive research, expand knowledge and advance care for the NF community.
NF Network’s mission is to find treatments and a cure for neurofibromatosis by promoting scientific research. 
National Organization for Rare Disorders’ (NORD) mission is to improve the lives of individuals and families living with rare diseases.
