Through this partnership with the Children's Cancer Foundation, proceeds from St. Baldrick's head-shaving events in Hong Kong support life-saving childhood cancer research in Hong Kong. The four projects funded by this grant have wide-ranging implications for the clinical and psychosocial treatment of childhood cancer patients in Hong Kong. Of the three clinical programs, two are directed at improving treatment for children with ALL. The first of these aims to accurately measure treatment response by identifying and counting residual leukemia cells to avoid under- or over-treatment. The second examines the role and behavior of the protein CD9, in reducing leukemia cells. The third clinical research project establishes a central registry for pediatric brain tumor patients. The fourth project investigates how a patients' level of hope and rumination style affects their psychological well-being and adjustment toward cancer treatment.
