Almost every new ground-breaking cancer treatment has been a result of clinical trials research. ANZUP works towards improving treatments and outcomes by undertaking clinical trials in below the belt (prostate, bladder, kidney, penile and testicular) cancer. These trials and research allows us to test better ways of helping people.

Some of our community have generously shared their experiences with cancer, clinical trials and fundraising. Here you can read about what we do, why we do it, why these cancers need to be talked about and why clinical trials are so important.
