The primary goal of the Breast Cancer Program is to reduce mortality and morbidity from breast cancer. The program is committed to research in four core areas that could have a significant impact on the treatment of patients with breast cancer: 1) triple negative breast cancer, 2) HER2+ breast cancer, 3) brain metastases, and 4) breast cancer arising in young women. Each of these areas builds on a strong research base at DF/HCC and brings together investigators from several disciplines and multiple institutions. The program has 116 members, representing seven DF/HCC institutions and 17 academic departments. In 2014 peer-reviewed grant funding attributed to the Program was $9.8 million in total costs from the NCI and $7.8 million from other sponsors. During the current funding period, Breast Cancer Program members published 1,750 cancer-relevant papers. Of these 33% were inter-institutional, 26% were intra-programmatic, and 46% were inter-programmatic collaborations between two or more DF/HCC members. Overall, when counted once, 27% of DF/HCC publications were inter-programmatic collaborations.
