Since 2017, The Max Foundation and Dr. Jerry Radich, leukemia researcher at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research and The Max Foundation board member, have partnered to tackle the problem of access to accurate testing for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in low- and middle-income countries through a program called Spot On CML. In two years, Spot On CML has provided access to testing and a pathway to treatment for more than 500 patients in 19 countries.

Spot On CML is an award-winning initiative! The Max Foundation and Fred Hutch received the Pioneers Outstanding Collaboration award for our work together on this breakthrough diagnostic test, and through our partnership, patients worldwide were able to gain diagnostic testing and access to treatment, care, and support.
