Date Time Pfizer and IDA Foundation Partner to Expand Access to Essential Cancer Treatments Pfizer today announced a partnership with IDA Foundation, an independent social enterprise providing essential medicines to low-and middle-income countries, to provide equitable access to quality cancer treatments in almost 70 developing countries across Latin America, Asia, Africa and the Western Pacific region. The supply agreement means that millions more patients will now have the potential to access innovative chemotherapy medicines for multiple types of cancer. Developing countries currently bear over 60% of the global cancer burden [1] and account for 70% of cancer deaths [2]. By providing sustainable access to Pfizer’s oncology portfolio, the agreement enables governments and non-governmental organizations (NGO) in developing countries to work toward improving the quality and quantity of available treatments and increase budgets for cancer care and treatment.
