Cancer.im is social network formed to bring solutions for cancer. This includes clinical research for new therapies and early diagnostic cancer solutions and the next-generation social networking and resource site for cancer patients, advocates, and volunteers. In 2013, nearly 1.6 million Americans will be diagnosed with cancer. Of that, 581,000 people are expected to die. Cancer accounts for 1 in every 4 deaths, second only to heart disease as the most common cause of death. The monetary cost seems irrelevant to the loss of life. Overall costs of cancer are projected to exceed $201 billion in 2013: $77 billion for direct medical costs (all health expenditures) as well as over $124 billion for the indirect mortality costs. One weapon on this war on cancer is Quality of Life (QoL). On October 27, 2007 Dr. Nikolaou, on behalf of Fox Chase Medical Center (a National Comprehensive Cancer Network) published a double blind placebo controlled study titled “Quality of Life (QOL) Supersedes the Classic Predictors of Survival in Locally Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).” The study was designed to evaluate the role of QoL as a prediction for survival. Some 91 percent of patients completed a standardized QoL survey before treatment. All patients were followed for at least 17 months. What they found is quality of life emerged as the most significant predictor of overall patient survival.
