HISTORY OF BREAST CANCER TRIALS

We’ve been saving lives from breast cancer for more than 45 years.

45 Years of Life Saving Discoveries

Breast Cancer Trials first began in 1978 and since then we have grown to be the largest independent oncology clinical trials research group in Australia and New Zealand.

Our research program has improved the treatment of breast cancer, led to changes in the way breast cancer is managed and has saved millions of lives through research collaboration.

Breast Cancer Trials are proud to have contributed to a significant improvement in breast cancer survival rates and falling mortality rates.
