Synovial sarcoma is driven by a defining genetic event — the SS18-SSX fusion protein, present in nearly all cases. For years, research and therapeutic development have focused on how this fusion interacts with the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, believed to play a central role in tumor growth. However, newly published research challenges that long-standing assumption […]
A recent market analysis estimates that the global synovial sarcoma treatment market was valued at approximately $832 million in 2023 and is projected to reach $1.6 billion by 2031. While market reports focus on financial projections, they often reflect broader trends in research, drug development, and clinical trial activity. For the synovial sarcoma community, this […]
Join the Synovial Sarcoma Foundation for a live, one-hour webinar focused on where synovial sarcoma research is heading and what that progress means for patients and families today. The conversation will bring together real patient experiences with insights from researchers and clinicians leading efforts in synovial sarcoma. We’ll discuss emerging research, areas of real momentum, […]
Content Warning:This article references a published medical case study that includes graphic surgical images involving the head and neck region. While the information may be valuable and informative, some readers may find the images difficult to view. Please proceed with care. Synovial sarcoma most often develops in the extremities, but in rare cases, it can […]
In a groundbreaking advancement in cancer treatment, a patient with synovial sarcoma in Arizona has become the first in the state to receive a cutting-edge immune-cell therapy, TECELRA, at the HonorHealth Research Institute in Scottsdale. Synovial sarcoma is a rare soft-tissue cancer that primarily affects large joints in the arms and legs, though it can […]
A landmark study just published in Nature Communications finally pinpointed the exact “cell of origin” for synovial sarcoma — a rare, primitive fibroblast that still carries embryonic markers (Hic1⁺ Pdgfra⁺ Lgr5⁺). Breaking 2025 Research: Read the entire article here. Learn more about our world-renowned registry efforts here.
The Synovial Sarcoma Foundation is dedicated to supporting cutting-edge research that advances treatment options for this rare and aggressive cancer. Recent findings published in The EMBO Journal highlight a promising new strategy: using drug blockers to target a problematic protein involved in synovial sarcoma’s genetics. Synovial sarcoma primarily develops in soft tissues such as muscles […]
The Synovial Sarcoma Foundation is committed to staying informed on the latest research and developments in this rare and aggressive cancer. A recent market report indicates that the global synovial sarcoma market is projected to grow significantly, reaching an estimated USD 420 million by 2034 — up from USD 245 million in 2024, at a […]
We are proud to share that the Tumor Board now includes 42 participating institutions, strengthening our collective expertise and reach. These new members, along with our existing institutions, greatly enhance our ability to develop and implement cutting-edge, individualized treatment plans.
The Synovial Sarcoma Foundation is proud to announce a significant milestone in pediatric cancer research: Dr. Rachel Hurly, a dedicated pediatric oncology fellow from the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), has been honored with the prestigious American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Young Investigator Award. Dr. Hurly conducts her research under the mentorship of Dr. Ted Laetsch at the Haldor Laboratory at the University of Pennsylvania, with support from the Synovial Sarcoma Fund.
