NHS Long Term Plan is aiming to diagnose 75% of patients for 3 out of 4 cancer types by 2028, currently this stands at 55% of early diagnosis on average, and lower in high risk cancers, therefore there is a need for an Early Detection and Diagnosis.

These trials may be related to Early Diagnosis and Detection(ED&D), anti-cancer treatment (e.g. chemotherapy, radiotherapy, biological therapy, gene therapy or surgery), symptom management or some other aspect of cancer care, such as screening.
