A Protocol and People card on a pale cream background. The question reads: What is grade, and how is it different from stage? The card turns over to the answer: Stage is about how far it has spread. Grade is about how the cells look under the microscope, and how fast they are likely to grow. Dr Oye, an illustrated doctor in a white coat and teal scrubs with an orange stethoscope, stands beside the card and says: So two people can share a stage and have very different grades. Both are used to choose treatment. Ask us for yours, and ask what each one is telling you.
A fifteen second card from Protocol and People. The question on screen reads: What does my stage mean? The answer reads: Stage describes how far the cancer has spread from where it started. It is not a score of how bad you are doing, and it does not change as you get treated. The stage was set at diagnosis and stays the name of what we are treating. Two people with the same stage can do very differently. An illustration of Dr Oye, a Black woman in a white coat with glasses and a stethoscope, appears beside the card.

A fifteen second card from Protocol and People. The question on screen reads: What is a biopsy? The answer reads: A small sample of tissue is taken from your body and looked at under a microscope. It confirms whether cancer is present and identifies the exact type. A biopsy gives answers that scans alone cannot, which is why it usually comes before a treatment plan is made. An illustration of Dr Oye, a Black woman in a white coat with glasses and a stethoscope, appears beside the card. The address protocolandpeople.org is shown at the bottom.
A fifteen second card from Protocol and People. The question on screen reads: Why doesn't my body remove cancer naturally? The answer reads: Your immune system does try. It normally finds and clears out damaged cells before they cause a problem. Cancer cells find ways to hide from that patrol, or to grow faster than your immune system can keep up with, which is part of what some newer treatments try to fix. An illustration of Dr Oye, a Black woman in a white coat with glasses and a stethoscope, appears beside the card. The address protocolandpeople.org is shown at the bottom.
A fifteen second card from Protocol and People. The question on screen reads: What is cancer, actually? The answer reads: Your body makes new cells all the time and stops when it has enough. Cancer is what happens when one cell loses that stop signal and keeps copying itself. Cancer that starts in the breast behaves differently from cancer that starts in the lung. That is why your treatment will not be the same as someone else's. An illustration of Dr Oye, a Black woman in a white coat with glasses and a stethoscope, appears beside the card.
