Is your company willing to support initiatives that make a real difference in the lives of thousands of cancer patients in resource-limited countries? If so, please consider becoming a corporate sponsor of INCTR and help us build capacity for cancer control.
In 2007, some 7.9 million people died from cancer, accounting for 13% of global deaths. Between 2005 and 2015, it is anticipated that 84 million people will die of cancer, 72% in low and middle income countries (LMIC). This number is more than will die from heart disease or from all infections combined.
Cancer is already the number one cause of economic loss from disability and mortality (the global cost is approaching a trillion dollars per year, not counting treatment costs) and will be an ever increasing cause of human suffering, both directly and from its economic impact unless and until effective cancer control measures are implemented throughout the world.
