Cancer Research works: Driving Progress Against

Event 2020

Let’s team up for Cancer Research

 

One of the main challenges in the fight against cancer is further developing and boosting cancer research as an essential part of slowing the progression of the disease and further improving survival rates and quality of life for those affected. Estimates show that cancer will be the leading cause of death in the coming years with an increase to 21.6 m.

Let’s team up for
cancer research

Because if cancer doesn’t care about
distance, neither do we.

With your support we can move towards a future without cancer

Share on social media

You can show to the world your support on social networks for research through our API. This API  calculates the distance between you and up to 4 of your friends or family. It shows that, when there is a common goal, the distance disappears.

The importance of the
fight against cancer

01. The social impact of cancer

It is estimated that by 2030 cancer will be the leading cause of death worldwide with new cases expected to increase to 21.6 million each year. According to the GLOBOCAN report, in 2012 there were 14 million new cases diagnosed and 8.2 million cancer-related deaths worldwide

02. Economic impact of cancer

Life years and productivity loss, together with disabilities resulting from cancer account for the largest economic cost on a global scale, compared to other causes of death including infectious diseases.

03. Importance of cancer research

One of the most important areas is to support and promote research on the causes, prevention and early detection of cancer as a key element in controlling the disease. This will lead us towards the discovery of a cure for cancer or transforming the disease into a chronic illness.

04. Research is a long-distance run

Research is a continous work and the results will be noticeable mostly in the long term. For this reason, it is imperative not to stop on the way and keep on funding research to get more advances in the near future. Step by step, we obtain promising results that will contribute to the end of cancer disease, or make it chronic to improve the quality life and increase life expectancy of cancer pacient.
