TRANSFORM

The TRANSFORM trial has reached an important milestone, with recruitment now underway and the first invitation letters sent to potential participants.

The trial has already attracted significant national media attention, including coverage from BBC News, BBC Radio 4’s Today programme, Sky News, LBC and The Guardian. Members of the Barts CTU team, Professor Rhian Gabe and Dr Victoria Vickerstaff, also feature in videos on the Prostate Cancer UK website, where they discuss the science behind the trial and the recruitment strategy designed to ensure a representative study population.
