The NHS will begin contacting half a million men this week. The aim is to invite them to join a major research programme. This programme is focused on improving early detection and treatment of prostate cancer. Men who have had or are living with prostate cancer will receive letters and text messages. These messages will explain how they can register for the study. The initiative has the potential to significantly contribute to progress in the fight against this disease.
