Take Steps to Save Lives and fight one of the fastest increasing and deadliest cancer diagnoses in the western world.  

• Every 36 minutes an American dies of Esophageal Cancer
• Most cases are caused by reflux disease 
• Yet, many people have no idea that reflux can cause cancer!
• The good news is that survival increases dramatically with early detection
• A precursor condition called Barrett's Esophagus can be found early 
• Barrett's Esophagus can be cured, preventing the development of cancer

That's why your support is so important.  ECAN works to raise awareness about the link between reflux disease and cancer - so early detection is more likely - and fights for more resources to beat the disease once it's diagnosed.
