Our commitment to innovation in cancer care

Over the past several decades, our innovative medicines have improved how cancer is treated, making long-term survival a possibility for more patients. We strive to help more patients across a broad range of solid tumors and blood disorders with our medicines, scientific discovery and investigational research, and are working with partners to address all aspects of patient care, from diagnosis onward.

Until we can offer each person with cancer a better, healthier life, we will keep working.

Our commitment to the cancer community

We are committed to fostering a community of support, creating awareness about the challenges people living with cancer face, and spearheading initiatives to address disparities in cancer research and care.
