Supporting the Needs of Cancer Patients in the Community

Supporting the Needs of Cancer Patients in the Community

Today, more than 15 million people in the U.S. are living with cancer, and that number is expected to grow as additional therapies allow more patients to live with the disease. Building on our legacy of meaningful cancer support, Pfizer works closely with patient advocates, professional organizations and policymakers to better understand and meet the needs of these patients, their families and caregivers and others impacted by cancer.

We take a scientific approach to providing the educational, emotional and psychosocial resources that can help make a real difference in outcomes for cancer patients by leveraging insights and data to inform our content. We also provide millions of dollars in grants each year to fund organizations that provide essential programs and services to patients coping with a wide range of cancers.

Pfizer Oncology Together™

Patients in the U.S. now have access to Pfizer Oncology Together, a personalized patient support program that offers resources for patients prescribed Pfizer Oncology medicines. As part of the program, patients will have access to a team of representatives with social work experience ("Care Champions") who offer one-on-one support resources meant to help patients with some of their day-to-day challenges. Care Champions can connect patients to emotional support resources, educational information on topics such as nutrition, guidance on leaving or returning to work, and an independent organization that helps eligible patients find rides and lodging for their treatment-related appointments.*

*Some services are provided through third-party organizations that operate independently and are not controlled by Pfizer. Availability of services and eligibility requirements are determined solely by these organizations.

This Is Living With Cancer™

Continuing Pfizer's efforts to put patients first by supporting those living with cancer and their caregivers, This Is Living With Cancer™ is a program that shares inspiring stories and provides resources and tools like LivingWith™, a free app to help manage life with cancer. The app is designed to help anyone in the U.S. living with cancer connect with loved ones, ask for support, remember important information from doctors' visits and stay organized, all in one place. LivingWith is available in app stores in English and Spanish.

Patients and caregivers can also sign up for a personalized, pan-tumor digital support experience to gain access to evidence-based tools with the goal of helping to build skills around coping, communication, stress management and more. Visit ThisIsLivingWithCancer.com to learn more.
