Kenya is ushering in a new era in breast cancer treatment with the groundbreaking Wiki Moja (One Week) radiotherapy innovation, reducing treatment duration from the traditional three weeks to just five days, without compromising effectiveness.
This transformative approach is led by Dr. Catherine N. Nyongesa, Kenya’s first female oncologist and founder of the Texas Cancer Center, alongside a dedicated team of local specialists.
Their work is redefining access to quality cancer care for women across the country. With Wiki Moja, patients can complete life-saving radiotherapy more quickly, spend less time away from work and family, and make fewer hospital visits — all while maintaining world-class treatment outcomes.
Grounded in evidence and guided by compassion, the Wiki Moja model demonstrates how African-led innovation can set global benchmarks in oncology.
By shortening waiting times and expanding access to advanced radiotherapy, Kenya is giving thousands of families renewed hope, dignity, and time.
