The Seven Ps of Cancer Interception
Advances in technology, clinical innovation, cross-sector collaboration, and active societal engagement are converging to shift cancer from an unexpected and lethal disease to a condition that can be detected early, intercepted effectively, and ultimately prevented. Framed around seven core principles: purpose, prevalence, potential, precision, practicality, partnership, and persistence, this commentary highlights how strategic alignment across these dimensions can catalyze progress toward global cancer interception.
