Our scientists, doctors and nurses have helped discover and develop many of the top cancer drugs that are helping more people survive cancer.
From studying the biology of treatment targets in the lab, to developing new cancer drugs, our researchers are working hard to ensure more people survive cancer.
Thanks to research, we’ve helped develop cancer drugs that are being used to treat cancer.
Meet people like Justine 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.
