Dear Friend, 

Did you hear the news? Researchers have made an important discovery that promises to revolutionize how prostate cancer is treated!

Maybe you saw it in the headlines -- the exciting buzz surrounding a key finding published recently in the highly-respected scientific journal Nature.

In case you missed it, I want to deliver the news personally -- because  <http://prostatecancer.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=381dca877e43c44046caa6dd1&id=f1551e54cb&e=b7e2b89435> your support for Prostate Cancer Canada is critical to what happens next.

With funding from Prostate Cancer Canada, researchers led by Drs. Robert Bristow and Paul Boutros have made a key discovery: determining when cancers that seem non-aggressive harbour the potential to become aggressive by using the cancer's own genetic fingerprint.

This critical insight will pave the way for the development of tests that will enable men to know their exact risk at the point of diagnosis, allowing for the most personalized, most effective treatment possible.

This is a real game-changer, and it wouldn't have been possible without people like you. But  <http://prostatecancer.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=381dca877e43c44046caa6dd1&id=a4331e25a9&e=b7e2b89435> your support now is key to saving lives with this breakthrough!

With your gift, you'll help us take the next step -- translating scientific discovery into life-saving clinical practice.

Being able to gauge cancer's aggressiveness as early as possible is a critical first step to more personalized care. As Dr. Bristow explains, that may mean dialing back treatment for men with less aggressive cancers and intensifying treatment for those with aggressive cancers.

"We hope that this research mode of testing will now go into the clinical mode in the next two to five years, and really change clinical practice for men with prostate cancer in Canada and worldwide," says Dr. Bristow. 


Your support today will help make that happen.


Despite incredible progress, prostate cancer still kills approximately 4,000 Canadian men each year. Imagine the lives that could be saved -- and the quality of life that could be preserved by putting this breakthrough to work as soon as possible.

Please, help take the next step toward giving hope to men and their families with  <http://prostatecancer.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=381dca877e43c44046caa6dd1&id=e91b610d74&e=b7e2b89435> your gift of $50 ... $100 ... $150 or more now! For your life-saving support...

Thank you!
