Halasartan (Hebrew: חלאסרטן) or Stop Cancer is an Israeli non-governmental organization that primarily works on a voluntary basis to provide relief and support for young oncology patients. According to the European Society for Medical Oncology, the organization serves young patients with cancer among the ages 18–45 years, through its large-scale operations. The NGO targets mostly patients with breast cancer, genitourinary, haematological malignancies, melanoma, lymphoma, colorectal cancer, and leukaemia, among others. The community offered by the program enables patients to alleviate their 'sense of seclusion’ and reduce anxiety.’ The organization's goals are two-sided: first, to characterize the user profile of young patients with cancer, their goals and unmet needs; secondly, "to influence the attitudes of official state institutions." External surveys show that patients consider the network not only as a reliable source for medical information, but also for patient mentoring of newly diagnosed members by cancer survivors.
