Funded Activity Summary

Breast screening has been successful in reducing deaths from breast cancer. Unfortunately it also detects increasing numbers of precancerous changes. Treatment of these changes is often aggressive, using surgery and radiotherapy. However we are unable to predict exactly which of the changes we need to treat. We aim to better understand the changes involved in this progression and try to block them using new drugs.
