Why Early Detection Matters
Breast cancer clearly shows how early detection improves outcomes. When detected early, survival rates are significantly higher. As the disease progresses, outcomes decline and treatment becomes more complex.
The stage at diagnosis determines the outcome.
Stage I
98%
Early stage
highly treatable
Stage II
86%
Early stage
Treatable with timely care
Stage III
57%
Advanced stage
Requires complex treatment
Stage IV
<30%
Late stage
limited outcomes
A simple screening done at the right time can shift diagnosis from late stage to early stage and significantly improve the chances of survival.
MOC Cancer Care Foundation (MOCF) is a Section 8 not-for-profit organisation established in 2018 in Mumbai.
It is the social impact arm of MOC Cancer Care and Research Centre, bringing clinical expertise into communities with limited access to early detection and care.
MOCF addresses this gap through early screening, timely diagnosis, and continuous support across the cancer care journey, from detection to treatment.
Our work ensures that no patient is lost in the process.
