MORE focus is needed on the growing groups of people living with treatable but generally incurable cancers, Director of the Australian Cancer Survivorship Centre Professor Michael Jefford said on Friday.
He said Australia has more than 1.2 million cancer survivors living with or beyond cancer, including an unknown amount with disease that is rarely cured but can be treated to manage symptoms, slow progression and extend lives.
