The National Cancer Programme will review the outputs of the National Cancer Diagnosis Audit to inform targeted improvements for the earlier diagnosis of cancer, including pancreatic cancer. Early detection of cancer, particularly in primary care, is a key component of our work and is supported by Cancer Alliances across the country.
