The cancer burden is rising globally, exerting significant strain on populations and health systems at all income levels. In May 2017, world governments made a commitment to further invest in cancer control as a public health priority, passing the World Health Assembly Resolution 70.12 on cancer prevention and control within an integrated approach. In this manuscript, the 2016 European Society for Medical Oncology Leadership Generation Programme participants propose a strategic framework that is in line with the 2017 WHO Cancer Resolution and consistent with the principle of universal health coverage, which ensures access to optimal cancer care for all people because health is a basic human right. The time for action is now to reduce barriers and provide the highest possible quality cancer care to everyone regardless of circumstance, precondition or geographic location. The national actions and the policy recommendations in this paper set forth the vision of its authors for the future of global cancer control at the national level, where the WHO Cancer Resolution must be implemented if we are to reduce the cancer burden, avoid unnecessary suffering and save as many lives as possible.
全球癌症负担正在上升,给所有收入水平的人群和卫生系统带来了巨大压力。2017年5月,世界各国政府承诺进一步投资癌症控制,将其作为公共卫生优先事项,通过了世界卫生大会关于在综合方法中预防和控制癌症的第70.12号决议。在本手稿中,2016年欧洲医学肿瘤学会领导力培养计划的参与者提出了一个战略框架,该框架符合2017年世界卫生组织癌症决议,并与全民健康覆盖原则相一致,全民健康覆盖确保所有人都能获得最佳癌症护理,因为健康是一项基本人权。现在是采取行动的时候了,要减少障碍,为每个人提供尽可能高质量的癌症护理,无论其情况、前提条件或地理位置如何。本文中的国家行动和政策建议阐述了作者对国家层面全球癌症控制未来的愿景,如果我们要减轻癌症负担、避免不必要的痛苦并尽可能挽救更多生命,就必须在国家层面实施世界卫生组织癌症决议。
