Our Research
Against Breast Cancer funds groundbreaking research to improve detection, treatment and increase survival after breast cancer diagnosis, the focus of our research is preventing secondary spread, the main cause of breast cancer related deaths.
Our unique approach
The ultimate goal of Against Breast Cancer is to prevent secondary spread, which is the main cause of breast cancer related deaths.
Researching new treatments
We need new treatments that target all types of secondary breast cancer cells before they have the chance to grow into tumours wherever they may be in the body.
Earlier detection
We envisage a future where a blood or urine home test is available for people to monitor themselves for breast cancer and secondary spread.
Reducing risk
There is a need for solid, evidence-based advice on diet and lifestyle factors that reduce the risk of secondary spread occurring.
Where your donation goes
We receive no government funding, and are entirely reliant on the generosity of individuals and organisations to fund our research to improve detection and increase survival after breast cancer diagnosis.
