On World Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (mCRC) Day, we recognize everyone affected by metastatic colorectal cancer and continue to advocate for equitable access to personalized cancer care.

Cancer treatment is changing. Biomarker testing helps doctors understand the unique characteristics of a person’s tumour and identify treatments that may be more suitable for their cancer.

For some people living with mCRC, biomarker testing can provide important information about treatment options, including targeted therapies, immunotherapies, and clinical trials. Everyone deserves the opportunity to benefit from advances in cancer care, regardless of where they live or receive treatment.

Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with early-stage colorectal cancer?

Patient organizations are gathering input from patients with early-stage colorectal cancer to inform a funding review of Dostarlimab (Jemperli) and Atezolizumab (Tecentriq) — two therapies for early stage dMMR/ MSI-H colorectal cancer.

We are seeking patients and caregivers to complete a short, confidential survey about their experience with stage II or III colorectal cancer and its treatment.

You do not need to have received either therapy to complete the survey. Patients who later progressed to have metastatic disease are also eligible to participate.

Your experiences play a critical role in helping decision-makers better understand the real-world impact of cancer and its treatments.

If this applies to you or someone you care for, we encourage you to complete the survey and share your experience.
