    Joe Biden on Tuesday traveled to New Orleans to deliver remarks at a Cancer Moonshot event. Biden announced $150 million in research grants at Tulane University in Louisiana on Tuesday. “We’re moving quickly because we know that all families touched by cancer are in a race against time,” Biden said. “I’m a congenital optimist about what Americans can do. There’s so much that we’re doing. It matters” “We’re mobilizing the whole country effort to cut American cancer deaths in half by 2020,” Biden said. He’s completely shot.

    The largest study to date investigating a single invitation to a PSA blood test to screen for prostate cancer has found it had a small impact on reducing deaths, but also led to overdiagnosis and missed early detection of some aggressive cancers. The CAP trial, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) and carried out by researchers from the universities of Bristol, Oxford and Cambridge, involved over 400,000 men aged 50-69. Just under half received a single invitation for a PSA test as part of the trial. After following up for 15 years, there was a small...

  • Thousands of Cancer Patients Die Over Delay in Referral to Specialist

    10/31/2015 3:18:31 PM PDT · by originalbuckeye · 31 replies
    At least 2,400 cancer patients die needlessly every year because their GP does not refer them to a specialist quickly enough, research has suggested. The two-week wait means patients should see a specialist for their first appointment within two weeks of seeing a GP with suspected cancer symptoms. But new research has found a higher number of deaths in cancer patients whose GPs do not regularly use the pathway. Published in the British Medical Journal (BMJ), the study, which was funded by Cancer Research UK and National Institute for Health Research, examined data from 215,284 English cancer patients in 2009....

    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Death rates continue to drop for the top three cancer killers in men -- lung, colon and prostate -- and for breast and colon cancer in women, according to the latest American Cancer Society statistics, published on Wednesday. But more U.S. women are dying from lung cancer, the annual report shows. And more people are dying of obesity-related cancers such as some types of liver and esophageal cancer. The report is posted on the Internet at http://www.cancer.org/statistics. It estimates that 1.368 million Americans will be diagnosed with cancer in 2004, and 563,700 will die of it. This...
