You can help give men an earlier diagnosis, one that isn’t left to chance

As you may know, the UK National Screening Committee recently opened the doors to routine testing for prostate cancer for some men, but the vast majority still don’t have access to screening. Without a screening programme, thousands of men will continue to receive a prostate cancer diagnosis when it’s too late for a cure. 

We are determined to create a screening programme for every man, so that no lives are being left to chance.

We have already started working towards this goal with our £42 million TRANSFORM trial, the largest prostate cancer screening trial in over 20 years.  

Spearheaded by six of the world’s leading prostate cancer experts, this groundbreaking project will compare four potential screening options to identify the safest and most effective way to diagnose prostate cancer. TRANSFORM has the potential to deliver the vital evidence we need to finally secure a screening programme for every man. 

As you read this, the first phase of the trial is starting, with thousands of men across the UK being invited to take part through their local GPs. And in the next two years, this landmark research project could provide the vital new evidence we need to finally tip the balance in favour of screening for every man.

Every man deserves access to a screening programme for prostate cancer, so they can have the chance of an early diagnosis. 

Men like Ian, whose life drastically changed when he was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer at just 52 years old. And John, whose diagnosis happened by chance after he heard the late Bill Turnbull speaking about his experience with prostate cancer on TV. And Samuel, whose early diagnosis saved his life and whose sons face a much higher risk due to this diagnosis. And Danny, who is undergoing multiple treatments for incurable prostate cancer and is determined to prevent other men from facing this difficult reality.
