Cancer is the second-leading cause of death worldwide. 10 million people die from cancer every year. Today alone, 5,200 people in the United States will be diagnosed with cancer. The total annual economic cost of cancer is estimated at US$1.16 trillion. Progress against one type of cancer is progress against ALL cancer. At least one third of common cancers are preventable. Millions of lives could be saved each year by implementing resource appropriate strategies for prevention, early detection and treatment.
