Fund cancer immunotherapy treatments beyond 2 years for everyone
We ask the Government to fund cancer immunotherapy beyond 2 years for all patients. We believe treatment should be based on medical need and effectiveness, not time limits. This could improve survival, fairness, and quality of life for people living with cancer.
Increase funding for NHS cancer care to make patients access treatments quicker
The government should provide more funding to ensure faster cancer diagnosis and treatment by reducing waiting times for biopsies, scans and chemotherapy. Guarantee patients timely access to life-saving care through increased investment, staffing and resources, so delays do not cost lives.
Amend law to allow advertisement of cancer treatments in clinical trail stage
Amend existing legislation to allow the publication of advertisements for cancer treatments that have passed Phase 2 clinical trials. We believe this would give people more choice and more chance to find new treatments not available through the NHS.
