A TDOL is a free half day event to help TGCT patients and caregivers learn more about this rare disease, find support, and enhance their knowledge base to help them navigate their journey.

TGCT Support has a simple purpose: to improve treatment of a rare disease — TGCT — and to help those living with it. To do this, TGCT Support focuses on three key areas: research, patient support & education, and advocacy, which lay the foundation of our mission to ensure the quality of life of TGCT patients through a comprehensive approach connecting individual patients’ needs, the worldwide community of TGCT advocates and the global health and research environment.
