Sharing data helps.
AI and machine learning collect and analyze for faster diagnosis, drawing conclusions from reported symptoms in electronic health records that seem unrelated.
These tools also ID treatments that are often off-label and match them to patients.

Rare cancers (6 per 100,000 people) make up 20–22% of new cancer cases in Canada, disproportionately affecting young adults and children.
Rarity impacts awareness, diagnosis and treatment. Clinicians may only see a handful of cases; enough data may not be available for researchers to work with.

Rare Disease Day 2026

Rare diseases, defined as affecting fewer than one person in 2,000, affect around 300 million worldwide.
Rare disease affects around 1 in 12 Canadians or 3 million people.

A landmark initiative investing in cancer prevention
