The Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology Foundation (Foundation) is a foundation created to enhance and expand the ability of the Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology (Alliance) to conduct cancer clinical research and address important treatment questions through large-scale clinical trials.

In May 2014, the Foundation created the Alliance Foundation Trials, LLC (AFT), respectively, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Foundation. AFT was also created to conduct cancer clinical research and address medical care and treatment through large-scale clinical trials involving various industry-related partners.
