Types of cancer
Why is cancer research important?
We explore why cancer research matters, how it leads to new treatments and cures, and why funding early stage discoveries is vital for a future when no life is cut short by cancer.
Why haven't we cured cancer yet?
We explain the reasons why cancer is especially hard to cure, but also the reasons to be optimistic for the future of cancer research.
The stages of breast cancer
With different labelling systems and multiple stages, the terminology used around breast cancer can be confusing. Find out what breast cancer staging means, how it's decided, and how it helps.
How curable is lobular breast cancer?
Lobular breast cancer is the second most common type of breast cancer, but it is less understood and harder to treat than other types. Thanks to you, progress is being made and research is helping give hope to patients wordwide.
What is acute myeloid leukaemia (AML)?
AML is the most common acute leukaemia found in adults - an aggressive blood cancer that starts in the bone marrow. Find out more about its symptoms, treatment, and why research funded by our Curestarters is helping people with this aggressive type of cancer.
What is chronic myeloid leukaemia?
CML is a rare type of blood cancer with one of the greatest research success stories in modern medicine. Find out all about it and why continued research still matters to find new cures.
Is there hope for diffuse midline glioma (DMG), an aggressive childhood cancer?
Diffuse midline glioma (DMG) is a particularly aggressive type of childhood brain cancer for which more research is urgently needed. But progress IS being made. Discover how you are helping families affected by this incurable cancer.
Is there hope for triple negative breast cancer?
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a particularly aggressive type of breast cancer for which more research is urgently needed. But thanks to our Curestarters, progress IS being made.
