Neuroendocrine Cancer UK is thrilled to announce the official launch of our campaign, “Advancing Neuroendocrine Cancer Research.” This campaign aims to improve the understanding, management options, and outcomes for individuals with this complex cancer.
Research is the cornerstone of progress in the medical field, and the Advancing Neuroendocrine Cancer Research campaign aims to address the unique challenges neuroendocrine cancer patients face. Due to the rarity of the disease and low awareness, patients often miss out on crucial funding opportunities, hindering the development of innovative treatments and care options.
“We at NCUK are so excited about the possibilities of this campaign,” said Campaigns Lead Lisa Walker. “We are determined to make a meaningful impact on the lives of neuroendocrine cancer patients by supporting quality research that will enhance their well-being and provide hope for the future.”
Our ambitious two-pronged approach will be the driving force behind the campaign’s success. Firstly, we aim to fund at least three practice-changing grants each year. These grants, open to healthcare professionals, seek to discover practical solutions that can make a tangible difference in the lives of neuroendocrine cancer patients within 12 months. These grants will address critical needs and improve patient experiences, from group therapies to post-surgery protocols.
Furthermore, the campaign will allocate resources to “big question” research, tackling fundamental issues surrounding neuroendocrine cancer. This research will focus on unravelling the causes of the disease, genetic implications, reducing delays in diagnosis, and exploring innovative treatments and management options. By working with larger research organisations, we aim to unlock significant breakthroughs in understanding and treating neuroendocrine cancer.
