We are delighted to have the Li Ka Shing Foundation (LKSF) and Temasek Trust come together to catalyse research for an innovative non-invasive ultrasound-based cancer therapy in Southeast #Asia. The joint S$12 million commitment from LKSF and #TemasekTrust — disbursed through a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) managed by TT Foundation Advisors — will support the donation of one Histotripsy System each to Singapore’s two leading cancer centres. This is the first of such to be available in Southeast Asia. The funding will also support a clinical trial in Singapore for patients with liver, kidney, and pancreatic cancers, slated to commence later this year. Such philanthropic-public-private #partnerships are key to accelerating #healthcare innovation for important cancers and improving patient outcomes in Singapore and beyond. Through the DAF, we aim to attract additional philanthropic capital from more donors to sustainably support the next phase of cancer research. This is in line with TTFA’s commitment to delivering impactful solutions at scale by supporting donors on their collaborative journey of giving. We are privileged to work alongside National Cancer Centre Singapore and National University Cancer Institute, Singapore to support clinical research and trials to use this novel technology, and look forward to scaling the #impact of this initiative through more partnerships.
