G1 Therapeutics contributes to independent education by supporting medical education grants. Our focus areas include educational activities with pragmatic approaches to improve patient care and public health in the domains of small cell lung cancer, oncology supportive care and chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression. We expect to contribute to an improved understanding of the underlying mechanisms of disease and their relevance to currently approved medications that address those characteristics while also developing innovative therapies that will improve the lives of those affected by cancer.
Medical education grant funding is available for medical education activities, including live, print, enduring, and/or web-based activities. Examples of educational requests include, but are not limited to:
- Accredited Continuing Education: Educational programs for healthcare providers such as physicians, nurses, and/or pharmacists that provide continuing education credits.
Who May Apply
Only US-based organizations may apply. Medical Education Grants may be awarded to (i) organizations qualified as nonprofit with tax exempt status under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code or (ii) for-profit organizations that are accredited continuing medical education providers.
How to Apply
Medical Education Grant Requests must be submitted online by the educational provider. Submissions are due at least 60 days in advance of the activity date. Please email MedEdGrants@g1therapeutics.com to request an application form. Submission of a letter of request on requester letterhead is required in addition to a completed grant request form.
Areas of Interest for Medical Education Requests
G1 Therapeutics is interested in collaborative submissions between CME providers partnering with professional organizations of practitioners who focus on treatment of persons with cancer.
Examples might include proposals for CME activities for regional meetings of oncology practitioners, or partnering with advanced practice nurse, case manager, or pharmacist societies in their CME efforts for their constituents.
G1 Therapeutics is currently accepting proposals that address the topic areas listed below. The expectation is that all proposals will increase awareness and understanding of these conditions, medication treatment options, and guidelines for care.
Small Cell Lung Cancer
Chemotherapy-Induced Myelosuppression
Oncology supportive care

Key Considerations
- G1 Therapeutic’s educational grant funds may not be used to support overhead expenses of the applicant or for any other institution affiliated with the applicant.
- Grant requests must be unsolicited and may have multiple funders.
- Grants must support education that do not promote a particular medicine.
- G1 Therapeutics grants must be used for the purpose defined in the original request.
Educational grants will not be awarded to or for:
- Individuals or a healthcare professional’s private practice
- Any charity or foundation associated with or controlled by an individual healthcare professional or healthcare professional’s private practice
- Organizations that discriminate on the basis of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, religion, age, national origin, or disability
- Fundraising event of a potential customer (e.g., treatment center or hospital) where the proceeds are being used to cover general operational and routine business costs
- Events that have already occurred
- Political organizations, campaigns, and activities
- Religious organizations or groups whose activities are primarily sectarian in purpose
- Programs or proposals that supplement an organization’s income or offset its expenses in a manner that benefits, directly or indirectly, a physician’s compensation
Please be aware that funding is budgeted and limited annually, and submission of an application (even one that meets stated criteria) does not guarantee that funding will be made to your organization. G1 Therapeutics receives many applications for support and cannot grant them all.
