At Amgen, our mission is to serve patients. We're committed to pushing the boundaries of science to transform medicine - striving every day to take on the toughest cancers. At the heart of this commitment is the passion and dedication of our team, who work every day to develop innovative cancer treatments for patients.

On World Cancer Day, Amgen is joining a global effort to show that each of us has the power to take action to reduce the global burden of cancer. Together with our team, Amgen is proud to support this year's theme, 'We Can I Can,' by sharing our employees' individual and collective commitments to making a difference in the fight against cancer.

Everyone has the power to make an impact. Whatever you choose to do, 'We Can I Can' make a difference. For more information on World Cancer Day, please visit www.worldcancerday.org.
