PROSTATE RESEARCH PROJECT: AFRICAN-AMERICAN MEN NEEDED

A nationwide search is being launched by the National Physician and Family Referral (NPFR)  Project to recruit African-American families with a history of 2 or more men with prostate cancer in their family.  The NPFR's 2003 "Find The Cause" Campaign is actively seeking 100 families by March 31, 2003 who meet the criteria for human genome research.  This research is to determine hereditary causes of prostate cancer.

African-American families and prostate cancer patients are being sought to participate in a confidential survey. The data will be used to determine if they meet the criteria for an historic human genome study on hereditary prostate cancer. 50 Hoops is performing the National Physician & Family Referral (NPFR) Project as an independent pharmaceutical and biogenetic survey organization.

We would like to enlist your participation by completing a simple Survey for Families/Patients or, if you are a Physician, a Physician Survey.

Please visit us at npfr.resourcez.com to find out more info. You may contact us at info@50hoops.org for more information.

This is an urgent need and we DO appreciate your support. Thank You.
