- Actor and broadcaster Stephen Fry is encouraging prostate cancer patients to join a new research initiative aimed at improving patient care and treatment.
- The NHS has partnered with Prostate Cancer Research to give scientists access to health data in order to transform the care of prostate cancer patients.
- The Prostate Progress project, the first selected for NHS England’s Data for Research and Development Programme, will combine clinical data with patient-inputted data to gain unique insights into the disease.
- By participating in the initiative, patients can help researchers develop new treatments, improve diagnosis, monitor treatment safety, and plan new NHS services for prostate cancer.
- Men diagnosed with prostate cancer, or those who have had it in the past, are encouraged to sign up for the initiative at www.ProstateProgress.org.
