The Cancer Letter was founded in 1973 by journalist Jerry D. Boyd, two years after the U.S. Congress passed the National Cancer Act of 1971. The newsletter is a trusted source of news in oncology, with a long history of providing valuable insight and actionable information about research, federal regulatory practices, and cancer patient advocacy.

The newsletter's editors have received numerous awards from journalism organizations for their extensive coverage of the National Cancer Institute, the Food and Drug Administration, and the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry.  Often, these enterprising stories and investigational reports receive attention from the general media.
