Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan
COMMUNICATION DE LA COMMISSION AU PARLEMENT EUROPÉEN ET AU CONSEIL Plan européen pour vaincre le cancer
- Initiative summary:
- Every year, 3.5 million people in the EU are diagnosed with cancer, and 1.3 million die from it. Over 40% of cancer cases are preventable. Without reversing current trends, it could become the leading cause of death in the EU. Europe’s beating cancer plan aims to reduce the cancer burden for patients, their families and health systems. It will address cancer related inequalities between and within Member States with actions to support, coordinate and complement Member States’ efforts.
