The Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT) has been working to reduce the tragically high human and financial cost of cancer since 2010. CPRIT has helped attract more than 323 leading cancer research scientists and their labs to Texas from both US and international locations (including members of the prestigious National Academy of Sciences) as well as recruit 18 companies.

In addition to their positive effect on health and wellbeing, CPRIT activities generate sizable economic benefits. The Perryman Group (TPG) has quantified the cost of cancer in Texas and the economic benefits of CPRIT for many years. This report updates the findings from TPG's analysis utilizing the most recent data regarding cancer incidence and results to date from CPRIT grants, following the same general methodology and report structure to aid in comparisons of results across years.
