HOW DO WE SWITCH OFF CANCER?

SUPPORT OUR LIFESAVING RESEARCH

Tweak, test. Tweak, test. Tweak, test. Our challenge today is to refine our most promising cancer-fighting molecules. To make sure they will kill cancer cells not just in the lab but in the human body, without harmful side effects. This is time-consuming, labour-intensive work – and there are no shortcuts. But with your help, we can speed up our research. We can hire more staff and run more experiments. We can get new cancer treatments into clinical trials sooner, and start saving lives.
