The KRAS Cancer Connect Summit is a unique gathering where patients, care partners, and leading KRAS experts come together to share knowledge, build connections, and shape the future of KRAS cancer treatment. This is more than just a conference—it's a movement created by patients, for patients.

What Makes This Summit Special 

As the only tumor-agnostic KRAS cancer event of its kind, we bring together patients across all cancer types affected by KRAS mutations. Here's what you can expect:

Meet the dedicated scientists working on tomorrow's breakthrough treatments and see firsthand how your participation helps advance research. No mad scientists here—just passionate researchers eager to share their work with you!

  • Connect with a welcoming community that understands your journey, regardless of your specific cancer type. Previous participants have formed lasting bonds and support networks that extend well beyond the summit.

  • Participate in expert-led sessions covering the latest KRAS-targeted therapies, clinical trials, and emerging research, consistently rated as "invaluable" by past attendees.
