City Cancer Challenge (C/Can) shared a post on LinkedIn:
“In too many cities, access to quality cancer treatment is a health system challenge.
Delivering effective multimodal cancer care, which includes surgery, radiotherapy, and systemic therapies, really depends on the readiness of the entire care pathway. From timely diagnosis and referral to treatment planning, safe delivery, monitoring, and follow-up, every step must function as part of a coordinated system. When these foundations are weak, patients experience delays, fragmented care, and missed opportunities for better outcomes.
The C/Can Readiness for Access programme, supported by Amgen, works by targeting exactly these barriers, embedding interventions across the parts of the system that determine whether a patient can actually reach the care they need.
After Asunción and Kumasi, Nairobi is now the third city to join. This week, Amgen leadership travelled to Nairobi to mark the moment alongside C/Can’s local team and the city’s project leads, a demonstration of the kind of partnership that makes this work possible.
When a system is ready, access becomes possible.”
