We work closely with our global men's health partners to ensure collaboration, transparency and accountability for every project we fund. We monitor this through report cards which detail what we seek to achieve, key measures and the impact.
Prostate Cancer
"Together with the brightest minds in research, we aim to achieve significant breakthroughs in the hope of beating prostate cancer. Our disruptive funding approach identifies revolutionary ways to accelerate health outcomes by creating strong, global collaborative teams." Dr. Colleen Nelson, Global Scientific Chair.
Men's Health
"One Mo can help change the face of men’s health through the powerful conversations created globally during Movember. Men have the chance to confidently discuss men’s health with people around them, resulting in men taking action early, helping change and save lives." Paul Villanti, Executive Director, Programmes
Mental health and suicide prevention
“The number of men taking their own lives around the world is one of the biggest challenges of our time. Movember is working to ensure all men and boys look after their mental health and are comfortable to seek help when they’re struggling.”
Brendan Maher, Global Director, Mental Health and Suicide Prevention.
Testicular Cancer
“Despite being the 2nd most common cancer in young men, testicular cancer is often a forgotten cancer due to early detection and treatment. Our projects look at underinvested areas such as improving access to healthcare services and treatment options for relapse” Paul Villanti, Executive Director, Programmes.

Development and adoption of a global standard set of outcome measures that matter to men diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer

Movember Funding to Date

AUD 106,616

What we seek to achieve

To define a minimum set of health outcome indicators and their measurement that are the most important to collect in the clinic, and in follow up treatment for men who have advanced prostate cancer. Standardising this and the collection method will lead to better reporting and research, which will foster changes in practice, improving the outcomes for men who have been diagnosed with advanced disease.

About the project

ICHOM facilitated an international group of experts who met over a number of months to collaboratively develop a set of standardised outcome measures for advanced prostate cancer, which includes information regarding diagnosis and treatment, as well as assessment of the man's quality of life after treatment.

These measures will then be promoted for inclusion in prostate cancer registries globally as well as local collection and reporting.
