Our research has helped develop personalised medicine that could change the way patients are treated in the future. By matching the best treatments to each individual patient, our researchers are helping more people survive cancer.
From understanding individual cancer types, to developing new personalised treatments, our researchers are working hard to ensure more people survive cancer.
Thanks to research, we’ve helped develop personalised medicine techniques that are being used to treat cancer.
Meet people like Oliver who have experienced first-hand how our research is making a difference. The life-saving research we do wouldn’t be possible without your support.
Over the last 40 years, cancer survival in the UK has doubled. In the 1970s just 1 in 4 people survived their disease for 10 years or more. Today 2 in 4 survive.
We want to accelerate progress and see 3 in 4 patients surviving the disease by 2034.
