Empowering Patients to Make Informed Decisions About Radiation Therapy

the challenge

Nearly 50% of Americans are unaware that radiation therapy (RT) can cure cancer, and the media isn’t helping. Sensationalized coverage continues to fuel fear around viable treatment options.

In partnership with the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO), CURA built a branded awareness campaign to change negative perception of radiation therapy. Centered around honest, balanced perspectives of cancer survivors and radiation oncologists, the campaign challenged misconceptions and raised awareness of the curative potential of radiation therapy.

"CURA is a strong communications partner who helped us educate people about radiation therapy to treat cancer. From developing resonant branding to compelling patient and provider stories, their team delivered a creative, effective campaign that is helping us reach the people who most need this information—cancer patients and their loved ones. The CURA team was responsive, strategic and understood our mission. I would recommend CURA to any organization looking to elevate their communications strategy."
