CCRAN
CCRAN is the most trusted colorectal cancer resource & action network in Canada.
A gentle reminder that our Monthly Information/Support Group Meeting will occur today, July 21st, at 1:00 pm EST via Zoom. We look forward to seeing you there!
The groups will be stratified by early age onset vs. average age onset, and early stage disease vs. average stage disease.
CCRAN is thrilled to announce the publication of our latest article in the peer-reviewed journal Current Oncology: "Addressing the Rising Trend in Early-Age-Onset Cancers in Canada." https://www.mdpi.com/1718-7729/31/7/303
This work sheds light on the rising incidence of cancers in those under 50 across multiple tumour types, as well as the necessity for improved awareness, early detection, and innovative treatment strategies.
We invite you to read the full article and join us in raising awareness and advocating for better outcomes for young cancer patients. Together, we can make a meaningful impact in the fight against cancer.
Join us in spreading the word!
