Most people have never heard of extrapulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma (epNEC) until it suddenly affects their lives.

epNEC is a rare and aggressive cancer that can develop in different organs and may cause few or no early symptoms, often leading to delayed diagnosis.

Stories like those of Susan and her husband Larry show why greater awareness of this rare cancer is so important. Learn more about epNEC here: https://go.boehringer.com/FU8pS

Obesity is a serious health condition that’s often underestimated. It’s not just about eating habits or willpower. It involves many complex factors and can quietly impact different parts of the body, including the liver.

On , listen to Suzanne as she talks about her liver health being ignored for a long time 👇.

Obesity affects so much more than weight, it’s interconnected with many aspects of health. It can quietly impact the liver too, contributing to conditions like metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), often without any clear signs.

Mr Wang’s story shows why recognizing silent changes early can make a real difference 👇.

Samantha's life and her cancer both have a unique story.

Biomarkers can help understand this story.
Early on, Samantha identified her key biomarker mutation: HER2 (ERBB2). This is a specific gene mutation that revealed important details about her cancer and allowed for more informed and personalized care decisions.

Every person is unique, and so is every cancer.

On World Cancer Day, we stand alongside the global community to help turn this understanding into action. Through research into cancer biomarkers and the development of targeted approaches, we aim to reflect the biology of each individual cancer and reshape standards of care.

By working with partners across the cancer community, we strive to enable more informed, personalized care decisions for people living with cancer – and push cancer into the background of their lives.

Jim's diagnosis revealed that his cancer was as unique as him.

He lives with extrapulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma (epNEC), a rare cancer where certain biological markers, or biomarkers, could act as signals that help doctors better understand how the tumour behaves.

Together with the UICC - Union for International Cancer Control, we’re putting the focus on the individual behind the diagnosis, not just the disease.

Biomarkers help explain the unique differences in how cancers grow, progress and are managed.

We support the UICC - Union for International Cancer Control's message of , because individuality matters in cancer care.

Identifying specific mutations in tumors has transformed lung cancer care.

This paves the way for personalized healthcare strategies, enabling healthcare teams to better support people living with lung cancer.

Jenny, who was diagnosed with lung cancer, had a biomarker test taken which gave her hope and clarity. Watch her story to see how personalized care can truly make a difference.

Extrapulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma (epNEC) is a rare and aggressive subgroup of neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs) occurring in multiple organs outside of the lung. With limited treatment options and a challenging prognosis, the median survival is just 7.7 months.

Our dedicated research efforts aim to transform this narrative and improve patient outcomes.
