William Clapp Diagnosed with prostate cancer at age 63. Patient profile on page 20. Prostate cancer affects everyone, not just men. Whe n a man gets pros t a t e cancer, it cha n ge s his life. And that affects everyone close to him — friends and family, men and women. That’s why on our cover we have shown the faces of many people — fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, children, physicians, scientists, and others. They are as committed as we are to finding better treat- ments and, eventually, a cure.

Family histories and genes may hold the key to solving part of the prostate cancer puzzle. When a man gets prostate cancer, it affects everyone close to him. A man is one-third more likely to get pros t a t e cancer than a woman is to get breast cancer.

Prostate cancer is the most common non-skin cancer in America, striking 220,000 new men each year. There is one new case every 2 ½ minutes.

As baby boomer men reach the target zone for prostate cancer, beginning at age 50, the number of new cases is projected to increase dramatically. By 2015, there will be more than 300,000 new prostate cancer cases each year, a 50% increase.

7 Prostate Cancer Foundation

Year in ReviewSince its inception in 1993, the Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) has become a model for other philanthropies, simplifying and speeding the grant- application process, organizing centers of excellence, bringing togeth e r exp ertise from all corne rs of the scient ific commu n i t y, and encouraging close collaboration among research leaders. The PCF has helped to nurture the best talent in medical research institutions around the world and broken down ba r rie rs betw een the laborat ory and the cli n i c , he lping patien t s receive state-of-the-art treatments sooner. Our efforts have contributed to a 50% increase in the number of prostate cancer drugs under development in the past five years and a 20-fold increase in government funding of prostate cancer research over the past 10 years.
