    What this call funds

    This call funds clinical research led by comprehensive cancer infrastructures to improve diagnosis and treatment of lung, bowel, breast and prostate cancer. Proposals must pilot and scale innovative diagnostic or treatment programmes across at least four EU countries, including one with less developed cancer care infrastructure, to reduce inequalities in cancer care. The goal is tangible benefits for patients, better tools for clinicians and researchers, and evidence to guide policymakers on rolling out these programmes more widely.
