In the last 50 years, our work has helped double cancer survival in the UK. Finding new ways to detect cancer at an early stage has played an important role in this.
More than 8 in 10 people who receive cancer drugs in the UK receive a drug developed by us, or with us.* We are pioneering new treatments.
