Our research into immunotherapy
Our strategy
For the past 120 years, we’ve been making discoveries that have saved countless lives. But we have so much more to do. Our strategy sets out how we'll accelerate progress towards a better future.
Our research is saving lives
Our scientists are harnessing the power of body's own immune system to tackle cancer, from understanding how the immune system seeks out and destroys cancer cells, to developing new immunotherapy treatments.
Current research
From studying the immune system in the lab to leading clinical trials testing immunotherapies, our researchers are working hard to ensure more people survive cancer.
Patients' stories
Meet people like Laine 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.
Our strategy to beat cancer sooner
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.
