Brain tumours

Research and clinical trials into brain tumours

All cancer treatments must be fully researched before they can be used for everyone, to make sure they are safe and work better than current treatment. There is research looking into brain tumours.

Researchers in the UK are looking at better ways to diagnose and treat brain tumours and manage treatment side effects.

Trials aim to find out if a new test or treatment is safe or works better than current ones.

Find out about what researchers should tell you before you agree to take part in a trial.

Our clinical trials database has open, closed and result summaries of trials in the UK.

Find out how our researchers are discovering new ways to tackle brain and nerve cell tumours.
