- “The goal is to reduce cancer mortality rates by at least 50% — at least 50 percent — over the next 25 years,” Biden said. “I call on the private sector to develop and test new treatments, make medicines more affordable, and share more data and knowledge that can educate the public and benefit any company’s research.” And I respectfully appeal to people living with cancer and carers and families to share their experiences and urge progress.”
