Kidney cancer
All cancer treatments have to be fully researched before they can be used for everyone. This is so we know that they work, they are better than the treatments already available and they are safe.
There is research into kidney cancer currently being done in the UK. If you're interested in joining a trial speak to your doctor about it.
Researchers are looking at better ways to diagnose and treat kidney cancer. They are also looking at new ways to check if cancer treatments are working.
Find current UK clinical trials for kidney cancer and result summaries for trials that have already finished.
Trials aim to find out if a new treatment or procedure is safe, and is better than the current treatment.
Find out what you should know, and what questions you should ask before agreeing to take part in a clinical trial.
Talk to your doctor if there's a trial you're interested in. They can say if it's right for you.
Find out about the research Cancer Research UK is doing, and how it's saved or improved the lives of cancer patients.
