Clinical trials

Pioneering trials that make a difference

 

Funding clinical trials

Getting ahead of cancer means finding the most bold, daring and pioneering research to be a part of. For patients who are diagnosed with cancer, particularly aggressive and rare forms of the disease, taking part in clinical trials is one of the most powerful ways to feel a sense of hope and that their experience is helping to make a difference.

Since 2007, we’ve funded more than 1,000 cancer projects. This has led to 150 significant cancer breakthroughs. We know the next big breakthrough is just around the corner. With the right people and enough money, we can find that new treatment – and one day, a cure for every cancer.

Are you suitable for a clinical trial?

Ground-breaking cancer treatments are the result of lots of hard work, dedication and hope. Smart, talented doctors, scientists and researchers trying new ideas and exploring possibilities, working together with people with cancer who are willing to take part in trials in the hope that they’ll drive our knowledge about cancer to new levels.
