Asian Fund for Cancer Research Limited – AFCR shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Cancer is taking lives every day. We need to accelerate progress.
At World Cancer Congress 2026 in Hong Kong, global leaders came together around a critical challenge: how to prevent more cancers, detect them earlier, and help more patients survive.
In Hong Kong, about 40 people die from cancer every day. Worldwide, approximately one in five people will develop cancer during their lifetime, with annual new cancer cases projected to approach 35 million by 2050.
At the Asian Fund for Cancer Research Limited (AFCR), we support research aimed at finding cancer earlier and developing more effective treatments. We also help promising discoveries move from the laboratory toward clinical studies—an essential step in determining whether a new approach can safely and effectively help patients.
For a family facing cancer, a discovery’s true value is the difference it may eventually make in their loved one’s life.
