This weekend at American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), American Cancer Society CEO Karen Knudsen MBA PhD issued an important call to action: “Success looks like ending cancer as we know it — for everyone.” Her message was loud and clear: To accelerate progress against cancer, we must consider health equity in every program, solution and intervention. And the time to start is now. At CancerIQ, we could not agree more. Democratizing access to precision health has been in our DNA since the very beginning. Hearing ACS call attention to health equity at ASCO — on National Cancer Survivors Day no less — was a powerful reminder that we are not alone. From the drug companies developing new therapies to the advocacy groups amplifying patient needs to the providers engaging patients in genetic risk assessment and early detection, so many have committed their lives to helping others survive cancer. It was inspiring to be in the same room as so many others working to ensure everyone has the chance to be a survivor. Let’s continue that work, together. #ASCO #NationalCancerSurvivorsDay #NationalCancerSurvivorsMonth #AheadOfCancer
