Home Research UCI Anti-Cancer Challenge Research Funds are available from the UCI Anti-Cancer Challenge (ACC) through the Chao Family Comprehensive Cancer Center to support cancer-related pilot projects. LEARN MORE ABOUT THE ANTI-CANCER CHALLENGE About the CFCCC Pilot Awards Program The objectives of the CFCCC Pilot Awards Program are to increase the number of extramural peer-reviewed collaborative grant awards and support the development of investigator-initiated early phase clinical trial protocols by clinical investigators. Pilot projects, particularly interventional trials and advance novel diagnostic or screening technologies, therapeutic molecules or devices, and bio-behavioral interventions from bench-to-bedside that advance research cancer control, population sciences and pediatric cancers, are given special consideration. Request for Proposals Anti-Cancer Challenge Past Awardees Every penny of the funds raised by Anti-Cancer Challenge participants are directed towards advancing innovative basic, translational and clinical cancer research that will lead to the next breakthroughs in cancer treatment. View our Past Awardees Team Funds Each year, UCI academic departments, divisions and units take part in the UCI Anti-Cancer Challenge (ACC) by creating teams of cancer research trainees. These teams help raise awareness and funds for pilot studies and early-phase clinical trials that support cancer research at the UCI Chao Family Comprehensive Cancer Center (CFCCC). Team Funds
