Great engineering feats are based on: A clear and proper goal An understanding of the scientific principles A rational, scientific plan A focused, well-coordinated organization We need a similar engineering effort to cure cancer.

No organization is currently developing a specific cure for cancer.

• Over 7 million people die each year from cancer.
• The goal of most cancer research is chronic control.
• Current approaches cannot consistently cure or control cancer
• Current organizations are not addressing the fundamental problem: tumor cell evolution.

A cure must be affordable to cancer patients.

• Pharmaceutical companies are working on hundreds of cancer drugs. However, the cure of cancer is a very different problem from making a drug. No single drug will ever be able to cure or control cancer.
• New anticancer drugs cost as much as $100,000 per year of treatment.
• This cost will bankrupt patients and our health care system.
• The high cost is "justified" by the high risk of cancer drug development.
• The financial risks of the Cure Cancer Project will be taken by charitable donors and the financial benefits will go to society.
