GCT Support is a community open to GCT patients, their caregivers and family members. It is also open to physicians, researchers, and others interested in learning more about GCT and helping those with the disease. Joining the community is free! We want to come together to share medical experiences, provide each other with support, and share tools to guide you through your GCT journey. Most importantly, we are here to ensure that no one faces GCT alone. If you have any questions or need more information, please feel free to contact us at [email protected]
