The world's first breath test for pancreatic cancer, led by Professor George Hannah through the Vapour Study could revolutionise earlier diagnosis and save thousands of lives.
Let's #closetheresearchgap to support more pioneering research like this.

It's #LessSurvivableCancers week raising awareness of the 6 less survivable common cancers: lung, liver, brain, oesophageal, pancreatic & stomach. Sadly, they account for 40% of all cancer deaths. LSC is calling govt to prioritise early detection, research funding & dev of treatment options.

Thank you @patrickhurley.bsky.social for sharing his own personal experiences and for highlighting the devastating impact of #lesssurvivablecancers on individuals and their loved ones in Parliament yesterday. These cancers must be a priority in the National Cancer Plan to transform survival.

Take our #LessSurvivableCancers research survey. From 2016 - 2021, these cancers got less than half the funding of other common cancers, despite a similar number of deaths. Whether or not you've joined a clinical trial or study, we want to hear from you. 👇

Six cancers in Wales have a five-year survival rate of under 20%.
That should stop us in our tracks.
Lung. Pancreatic. Liver. Brain. Oesophageal. Stomach.
We need focused action on the cancers with the worst outcomes.

Huge thanks to @clivejonesmp.bsky.social for sponsoring yesterday's debate in Westminster, and for calling for faster diagnosis for #LessSurvivableCancers. Early detection and faster diagnosis are vital to saving lives and driving better outcomes for those affected by these deadly cancers.

Innovations like this show the potential to shift the dial, but only if paired with urgent investment in earlier detection and faster diagnosis as outlined in the most recent report of the APPG on Less Survivable Cancers.
