Non-small cell lung cancer: It is a disease in which cancer cells form in the tissues of the lungs. Smoking is the major risk factor for non-small cell lung cancer. Symptoms include a cough that does not go away and shortness of breath.

Breast cancer: It is a type of cancer that develops in the breast when the cells grow abnormally. Breast cancer may form in lobules (glands that produce milk), ducts of the breast (the pathway that brings milk from glands to the nipple), the fatty tissue or the fibrous connective tissue within the breast. Symptoms of breast cancer include a lump in the breast or tissue thickening which feels different than the normal surrounding tissues, breast pain, redness, swelling, nipple discharge other than breast milk, unexplained change in shape, size or appearance of the breast, peeling, flaking or scaling of the skin, and a lump or swelling under the arm.
