If more people are going to survive cancer, the healthcare systems need a transformation.
What we want to innovateWe are going to transform cancer from a deadly to a curable or chronic disease. But there is no single answer as to how. What we do know is that no one can do it on their own. And that we need to think in new ways.
Vision Zero Cancer challenges the prevailing ecosystem and connects new ones. We want to engage the whole community, from healthy citizens, patients and their families to healthcare, academia, industry and policy, to create value in Sweden and globally.

Interview, Treatment and quality of life
More and more patients need radiotherapy. But radiation therapy treatment is an area where research in Sweden has gone from leading to lagging behind internationally. How do we reverse the trend? How do we ensure that radiation therapy research continues to develop and become even better so that more patients survive and can live a better life with less side effects?
Press release, Research, clinical trials and registries
To transform cancer from a deadly to a curable or chronic disease it is crucial to improve the precision in cancer treatment and follow-up of individual patients' cancer disease. The Partnership for Precision Medicine in Cancer and Vision Zero Cancer are joining forces to accelerate research into precision medicine, with the aim to benefit every cancer patient.
Early Detection, Workshops
Lung cancer is today the leading cause of death in Sweden. The earlier that lung cancer is detected, the greater are the chances of survival. A national screening programme has been brought to attention, but much needs to be resolved before we are there. Around 70 participants met digitally during a workshop on early detection and diagnosis of lung cancer hosted by Vision Zero cancer.
Our goal is to make Sweden a world leader in preventing, detecting, diagnosing, treating and organizing around cancer. Do you have ideas on how?
We welcome more stakeholders to engage in Vision Zero Cancer, through collaborations in specific actions and through partnerships. Together we can create even greater benefit for patients and society, in Sweden and globally.
