Research and clinical trials for lung cancer
All cancer treatments have to be fully researched before they can be used for everyone. This is so we know that they work, they are better than the treatments already available and they are safe.
Current research is looking at ways to improve the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer.
Research into causes of lung cancer
Researchers around the world are looking into the causes of lung cancer.
Research into lung cancer early diagnosis and screening
Researchers are looking at better ways to diagnose lung cancer. And to diagnose more lung cancers at an early stage.
Research into treatment for lung cancer
Researchers around the world are looking at making better and kinder treatments for lung cancer.
Research into living with lung cancer
Researchers are trying to find ways of improving the quality of life of people with lung cancer.
What clinical trials are
Trials aim to find out if a new test or treatment is safe and better than those currently available.
