非洲癌症护理项目, 与澳门第一赌城在线娱乐的合作伙伴一起, we are stepping up to overcome the rising burden of cancer in Africa. By redefining cancer care and enhancing the resilience and sustainability of health systems, 澳门第一赌城在线娱乐正在使医疗保健更容易获得.

非洲的癌症:日益加重的负担

Cancer is an urgent and growing health concern in Africa. It is now the continent's fifth leading cause of death, with more than 1.仅在2020年就有100万新病例.1 Approximately 70% of 10 million cancer deaths each year occur in low and middle-income countries (LMICs).2 尽管承担了80%的负担, LMICs have less than an estimated 5% share of the global resources for combating cancer.3 到2040年，非洲的预测是严峻的.100万癌症病例和1.预计每年有400万人死亡.1

即使有这些鲜明的数字, quality cancer care remains inaccessible to many Africans due to inadequate diagnostic facilities, 患者意识低下, 缺乏对医疗保健提供者的培训, 难以获得预防性服务, diagnostic, 治疗资源. These barriers disproportionately affect underserved populations, 加剧了现有的健康差距.4,5

尽管存在这些挑战, significant opportunities exist to provide equitable and sustainable access to cancer care in Africa. Countries are increasingly acknowledging the burden cancer places on health systems and are investing more to improve patient outcomes. However, these efforts need amplification and support from all stakeholders in the healthcare ecosystem to effectively address the growing disease burden.

澳门第一赌城在线娱乐对抗癌症的承诺

At AstraZeneca, our ambition is to provide cures for cancer in all its forms. Our quest involves understanding cancer in its complexities and working tirelessly to discover, develop, 并提供改变生活的治疗. We aim not just to save lives globally but also to advance equitable improvements in cancer outcomes for all. This can only be achieved in partnership with the cancer community, 卫生保健系统, 和政府, aiming to alleviate the burden of cancer on patients and society.

介绍非洲癌症关怀

非洲癌症护理 is our response to the growing cancer burden on the African continent, 解决采取行动的迫切需要. 于2022年11月在埃及举行的第27届联合国气候变化大会上推出, 非洲癌症护理 aids countries in their fight against cancer by advocating for policy changes to improve outcomes for all individuals affected by the disease, 不管他们的人口结构如何, 地理, 或者社会经济地位. It also encourages the adoption of innovative health technologies to make cancer screening more accessible, 特别是在偏远和服务不足的社区.

与澳门第一赌城在线娱乐的合作伙伴一起, 非洲癌症护理 will co-create a stronger cancer care ecosystem for all, 怀着建立本地能力的雄心, enhance screening and diagnostics and support more patients with access to our innovative medicines.

非洲癌症关怀采取针对具体国家的方法, collaborating with in-country external partners and stakeholders, 包括癌症专家, 研究人员, patients, 医疗科技公司, 政府官员, 和政策制定者, to establish sustainable and resilient cancer care ecosystems that can transform patient outcomes. 虽然由地方领导, 非洲癌症护理 is also uniting expertise across borders through its preceptorship programmes to maximise the skills and knowledge transfer opportunities within the African continent.

该方案侧重于四个行动支柱:

  1. 建设能力和能力: We are committed to supporting more than 100 oncology centres and providing training for more than 10,000 healthcare professionals to improve the quality of care delivered to patients across the continent
