Guest Editorial

Cancer progress is not reaching everyone. Native Nations must be part of the solution.

In 1971, the National Cancer Act set the United States on a path to confront one of its most formidable public health challenges. More than five decades later, the progress is undeniable.

Recent advances in early detection, prevention, and treatment are saving lives.
