Stand with Cancer Patients for World Radiotherapy Awareness Day – September 7!
On September 7, we mark the first-ever World Radiotherapy Awareness Day (WRAD), a global moment to spotlight one of the most powerful tools in cancer care: radiation therapy.
Why September 7? It’s the anniversary of the first patient ever treated with a linear accelerator in 1953. Today, radiotherapy helps half of all cancer patients live longer and better—but access is still unequal and more research is urgently needed to make treatments safer, more precise, and available to everyone who needs them.
EORTC: Driving Radiotherapy Forward Your support fuels EORTC’s groundbreaking research, from real-world data platforms like E2-RADIatE to clinical trials tackling rare and complex cancers.
Thanks to donors like you, we are helping:
- Extend survival amongst patients living with prostate cancer with combined radiation and hormone therapy;
- Prevent brain metastases in lung cancer patients;
- Reduce relapse in early breast cancer with targeted radiation boosts.
When you give to EORTC, you’re not just funding research—you’re standing with every family navigating cancer.
Every gift brings us closer to a future where no patient is left behind.
