Our mission is to provide leadership in: supporting research of LeioMyoSarcoma, improving treatment outcomes of those affected by this disease as well as fostering awareness in the medical community and the general public.

Leiomyosarcoma is a rare form of cancer, which affects about four people in every million. It spreads through the blood stream and can affect the lungs, liver, blood vessels or any other soft tissue in the body. Presently there is no cure, only remission if it can be attained, and this rare cancer can reappear anywhere and at any time. Because of its rarity, few doctors know how to treat it and it attracts little research.

The National LMS Foundation Inc. was formed on July 14, 2001. We were granted 501 c(3) status from the IRS as a non profit organization
