Who it’s for
Patients & caregivers
Survivors, physicians & advocates welcome
Join us for the 9th Annual Sarcoma Exchange, a free virtual symposium designed by and for the sarcoma community. This year’s theme focuses on helping patients and caregivers navigate the clinical trial landscape.
Through expert-led sessions, real-life patient insights, and practical tools, the Sarcoma Exchange aims to give you actionable information on how to identify clinical trials, why you might consider participating, and how your participation helps advance sarcoma treatment.
What we’ll cover
- Clinical trial basics
- What makes sarcoma trials different
- How to identify trials you’re eligible for
- Logistics of enrolling and participating
- Patient panel: what it’s like to participate in a trial
*Agenda is tentative and subject to change as we finalize speakers and session details.
Whether you’re newly diagnosed or years into survivorship, the Sarcoma Exchange offers community, knowledge, and information on the importance of clinical trials — and how they may benefit you, or the sarcoma community as a whole.

Why We Exist
When our founder, Suzanne Leider, was diagnosed with sarcoma, it took four years before she met another sarcoma survivor. That’s too long.
Realizing sarcoma patients were underserved, she founded the Sarcoma Alliance in 1999 with the words “guidance, education, and support” in her head.
Why do we use the sunflower?
Sunflowers are a symbol used around the world to remind everyone affected by sarcoma: You are not alone, you are strong, and there is always hope.
