Cancer Prevention Trials Unit

The Cancer Prevention Trials Unit (CPTU) is uniting to prevent cancer by facilitating high quality clinical trial research and producing evidence based interventions to prevent a wide range of cancers.

Our aim is to provide the necessary support to enable scientifically excellent studies, which are part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Clinical Research Network (CRN) Portfolio, to be successfully completed.

The CPTU is the only trials unit in the UK with particular expertise in cancer prevention and screening and is a fully registered UKCRC Trials Unit.

The CPTU is based within the Cancer Research UK funded Centre for Cancer Prevention. The Centre director is Professor Jack Cuzick. Professor Peter Sasieni is deputy director of the Centre and Director of the Trials Unit.
