Objectiu de la convocatòria
The objective is to support a multidisciplinary and multi-territorial research project, bringing together researchers and health professionals from at least 5 Spanish provinces. The focus of this call is to develop a project that responds to an unmet clinical need in cancers with a 5-year survival rate lower than 30% in Spain. The goal is to improve cancer patient survival, in cancers with broad national geographical distribution of the cases, and secure access to patient samples.
