We recognize the precious gift of life we’re each given as we raise awareness of the challenges of cancer survivorship – and we stand with survivors and their families as they continue their healing journeys. #NCSD2024

RARE DISEASES INTERNATIONAL supports #WorldCancerDay taking the opportunity to remind that 1 in 5 cancers is rare. Rare cancers account for about 25–30% of all cancer diagnoses and 25% of cancer deaths. Despite the high collective occurrence of rare cancers, basic biological and clinical knowledge about them is lacking. For many patients with a rare cancer, the lack of effective clinical management before and after diagnosis translates into a suboptimal clinical outcome; on average, patients with rare cancers have worse outcomes, with estimated average 5-year relative survival rates of 47% for patients with rare cancers versus 65% for those with common cancers (Gatta et al., 2011). (IARC WHO Source)
It's time to join the global movement, raise your voice, and stand in solidarity against cancer. Together, we'll make a powerful impact in the fight for a healthier world. Are you ready to be part of something incredible? 💙🌍 #WorldCancerDay #CloseTheCareGap

Agency Principal and Founder | Behavioural Science Advocate | Future of Healthcare Communications | Facilitator | Speaker | Agent for Change | Narrative Developer | Biopharma Marketing Expert
Yesterday was #WorldCancerDay, a moment to reflect on the global impact of cancer. Did you know that 1 in 5 people with cancer have a rare cancer? Rare cancers make up about 25–30% of all cancer diagnoses and 25% of cancer-related deaths. Despite their prevalence, rare cancers face a significant challenge - a lack of basic biological and clinical knowledge. This knowledge gap often translates into suboptimal clinical outcomes for patients. On average, individuals with rare cancers have a 5-year relative survival rate of 47%, compared to 65% for those with more common cancers (Gatta et al., 2011). It's crucial to raise awareness about the unique challenges faced by those with rare cancers. Advocacy, research, and support can bridge the gaps in understanding and improve outcomes for these patients. We will try our best to help those communications especially as I have a personal family conneciton to these rare cancers!

Cancer is one of the hardest things a person can go through, therefore having a supportive leader is so important: not only when you are going through cancer treatment, but afterwards in recovery. Having a leader who offers support during and after cancer treatment can make a world of difference in the recovery process too.
