This article analyzes the construction of cancer as a sanitary problem and an object of scientific inquiry in Argentina in the first two decades of the twentieth century. It considers the acquisition and circulation of foreign knowledge on the subject, the context in which the first experimental developments arose, the institutional initiatives promoted by the medical profession and the way in which state authorities and civil society were enlisted to further these initiatives. There is a detailed examination of the process of creating the Instituto de Medicina Experimental, a center wholly devoted to the study and treatment of cancer, which was inaugurated in 1922, symbolically ending the first phase of constructing cancer as a problem in the country.
