This Eurohealth special issue seeks to understand the commercial determinants of cancer control policy. This relates to private-sector activities that affect the health of populations. The articles present the dimensions of the commercial determinants and how to govern them along the cancer continuum - from prevention and screening, through integrated treatment and palliative care - to provide a potentially useful descriptive and analytical basis for governments and the international community.
