Cancer Prevention Study 3

Good day,
We need your help to recruit participants for the CPS-3 study!! Please share your personal story withfriends and family and encourage them to enroll in CPS-3 to help us Fight Back against the disease!
The American Cancer Society is working on one of its biggest research projects ever – a ground-breakingstudy called Cancer Prevention Study-3 (CPS-3). This study will help us better understand what causes cancer and how to prevent it, so we can saves lives and create a world with less cancer. CPS-1 & 2 helped established the link between smoking, obesity, various medications, medical conditions, familial, environmental factors and cancer. As a result of these studies there are nearly 13.7 million people in America who have survived cancer and countless more who have avoided it!
The Downtown San Diego Relay for Life was chosen to host enrollment for this crucial study! If you are between the ages of 30-65, have never been diagnosed with cancer (not including squamous cell skin cancer), and are willing to commit to completing periodic surveys for the next 20-30 years, you are eligible to enroll in CPS-3! If you are not eligible to enroll please help spread the word by sharing CPS-3 information with friends and family – “CPS-3…tell 3!”
Participants must be between the ages of 30-65, have never been diagnosed with cancer (not including squamous cell skin cancer), and willing to commit to completing periodic surveys for the next 20-30 years.

Please invite friends and family to enroll in the study at the Downtown San Diego Relay for Life event Saturday, August 17th, 12:00pm - 4:00pm.
For more information about CPS-3 please visit www.cancer.org/cps3 or the Downtown San Diego Relay for Life website or contact our Relay’s CPS-3 Chair, Mary Van Hoozer (cps3sandiego@gmail.com).


Thank YOU for playing a role in the fight against cancer!

Enrolling in CPS-3 at Relay this year…..30 minutes
Completing Follow up Surveys every 2 years…..45 minutes
Saving 1 person from hearing “you have cancer”…..PRICELESS
