Core offering

LCP provides no-cost cancer prevention and early detection screening services across Louisiana for breast, cervical, colorectal, and lung cancer. Services include mammograms, Pap tests, HPV tests, HPV self-collection, colorectal screening (FIT, gFOBT, Cologuard, colonoscopy), lung cancer screening awareness, and tobacco cessation support. Patient navigators guide eligible individuals through the screening process, removing financial, insurance, and transportation barriers.

Product overview

Louisiana Cancer Prevention & Control Programs (LCP) operates as a public health service organization rather than a technology product company. LCP offers a portfolio of cancer prevention and screening services including no-cost breast and cervical cancer screenings with patient navigation support, HPV vaccination education, colorectal cancer screening programs with interactive educational tools (walk-through inflatable colon displays), and lung cancer screening with tobacco cessation support. The organization also provides financial resources and leads collaborative initiatives like the Louisiana Colorectal Cancer Roundtable to increase screening rates statewide. These services work together to remove barriers to cancer prevention and early detection for Louisiana residents.

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Livestrong Foundation: Cancer-focused nonprofit providing survivor support, education, and navigation services. Comparable to LCP's patient navigation and survivorship components, though Livestrong's portfolio is broader and survivor-oriented rather than prevention-led.
• American Cancer Society: National nonprofit focused on cancer prevention, early detection, patient support, and policy advocacy. Directly comparable to LCP's cancer screening, education, and patient navigation mission across multiple cancer types, including the colorectal cancer roundtable work LCP partners on.
• American Lung Association: National nonprofit promoting lung health, including lung cancer screening awareness and tobacco cessation. Directly comparable to LCP's lung cancer screening program and tobacco cessation support for high-risk adults.
• Prevent Cancer Foundation: National nonprofit dedicated to early detection and prevention across multiple cancer types. Closely aligned with LCP's multi-cancer prevention approach (breast, cervical, colorectal, lung) and its emphasis on screening as the primary lever for reducing cancer mortality.
• Susan G. Komen: Breast cancer-focused nonprofit funding screening, treatment support, and education. Comparable to LCP's breast cancer screening navigation and no-cost mammography services, though Komen operates nationally rather than within a single state.

Broad incumbents

• National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN): Alliance of leading cancer centers setting clinical guidelines and quality standards. Comparable to LCP in influencing screening guideline adoption, though NCCN operates at the clinical provider level while LCP operates at the community/patient navigation level.
• CDC Division of Cancer Prevention and Control: Federal agency funding and administering the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) and the Colorectal Cancer Control Program. Functions as LCP's primary federal funding source and program-design counterpart at the national level.
• National Cancer Institute (NCI): Federal agency conducting cancer research and setting national cancer control priorities. LCP's reliance on Louisiana Tumor Registry data and policy linkage to national statistics makes NCI a comparable, broader-scale player in the same prevention/research ecosystem.

Regional players

• Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center: New York-based NCI-designated cancer center with community outreach and screening programs. Comparable to LCP as an academic-anchored, region-focused cancer prevention organization, though Roswell Park also operates clinical treatment that LCP does not.
• Huntsman Cancer Institute: Utah-based NCI-designated cancer center combining research, prevention, and clinical care. Comparable regional model to LCP, integrating cancer prevention and screening within an academic medical center serving a defined state population.
