YOUR COLORECTAL CANCER ALLY
Find resources for patients, survivors, caregivers, and family members.
COLORECTAL CANCER BASICS
Colorectal cancer is a cancer that starts in the colon or rectum, which are
parts of the digestive system. Unlike most cancers, colorectal cancer is often
preventable with screening and highly treatable when detected early.
What is colorectal cancer?
SCREENING AND PREVENTION
The best way to prevent colorectal cancer is getting screened on time.
Screenings can also find cancer early when treatment is most effective. Most
people should begin colorectal cancer screenings at age 45, but people with
certain risk factors may need to start screening earlier.
Take the free screening quiz
TREATING COLORECTAL CANCER
Colorectal cancer is highly treatable if caught early. There are many types of
treatments for colorectal cancer, including surgery, chemo, radiation, and other
therapies. Your treatment typically depends on the location of the cancer and
the stage of diagnosis.

I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH STAGE-I COLON CANCER. DUE TO MY CANCER’S LOCALIZED NATURE,
IT WAS RELATIVELY SIMPLE TO TREAT. HAD I IGNORED MY DOCTOR’S PLEA AND WAITED TO
GET SCREENED, I COULD HAVE BEEN FACING FULL-BLOWN METASTATIC DISEASE IN JUST A
FEW YEARS, WHICH IS MUCH HARDER TO OVERCOME.
