How Much Is Spent On Cancer Research Each Year?

By: Adam Zierer Home | Reference-and-Education


There are several forms of cancer ranging from breast cancer, colon, lung, and prostate cancer. There are millions of people diagnosed with some form of cancer each day. Chances are pretty good that you know someone that has been diagnosed with cancer.

Heart disease is actually the largest killer in the US but cancer is not far behind. You may have had someone close or a loved one who had cancer that ended up being fatal. It is possible that with early detection, todays research and technology may have saved them.

Some types of treatments for people with cancer may include radiation therapy or chemotherapy and in some cases they will need to have both treatments. When these people go through the treatments they may not feel well after their treatments. They might be tired and sick to their stomach.

The more we research the better technology gets to treat cancer and maybe someday cure cancer. Physicians today have a lot of great technology available to them to help diagnose and treat all types of cancer. The National Cancer Institute helps with the research that is needed for cancer, giving grants to physicians that are doing research for cures to cancer.

How much revenue is spent with cancer research per year? For financial year 2008 about $5,260,738.00 and for 2009 that amount will increase to over 6 million.

I hope the best for my family and all of mankind; therefore I would like to insure that cancer research continues until all forms are curable.

I have family members that are survivors of cancer due to technology and early detection. I give great thanks to the physicians that took the time to do the research.

Being able to donate to the National Cancer Insitute has been a great comfort in my life. I would not have been able to donate as much as I would have liked to without doing online marketing.
