Patient Registry Program

The Sarcoma Foundation of America (SFA) is managing a Sarcoma Patient Registry Program.  The Registry records the significant events of the history and treatment of patients diagnosed with Sarcoma.  The Registry is a data collection and reporting system hosted by Registry Partners and managed by SFA.
The Registry’s endeavor is to collect, store, analyze and interpret data on persons with sarcoma.  SFA invites you to participate in its efforts to make the Sarcoma Patient Registry information as accurate and comprehensive as possible.  By contributing, your data will be a valuable resource for oncologist and researchers conducting clinical trials and medical studies.  Most of all, you will be helping to improve the care of current and future sarcoma patients.
You are eligible to join the Registry if you have been diagnosed with ANY sarcoma subtype.
If you have any questions or would like to join the Sarcoma Patient Registry, please send an email to sfa@registrypartners.com with your contact information and the most convenient time and method to contact you, or you can call toll free at (866) 501-6780
