CHALLENGE
ENDING-CANCER
Cancer, a disease due to abnormal cell growth, is the second largest killer disease threatening humanity after heart disease.
There are over one hundred types of câncer threatening us.
Our society has been fighting against câncer for centuries but despite huge efforts and some successes we still don`t have the optimal treatment to eliminate câncer as a death cause.
While science is continuosly searching causes , and treatments for the diferente types of câncer our society still don`t have clear and definite medicines, technologies and instruments to defeat such disease in general while achieving partial results for specific types.
This competition wants to motivate researchers and organizations around the world to propose an integrated clinical solution which will, as a minimum, improve patients average lifespan in three times the average survival rate without the treatment.
