The European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC), established in 1962 in Brussels, is a unique pan-European non-profit clinical cancer research organisation whose work spans across tumour types, disciplines and national borders. It develops, conducts, coordinates and stimulates high-quality translational and clinical trial research to improve the survival and quality of life of cancer patients. This is achieved through improving the understanding of cancer biology and the testing of more effective therapeutic strategies, using currently approved drugs, surgery and/or radiotherapy in clinical trials conducted under the auspices of a vast network of clinical cancer researchers, in more than 730 hospitals and cancer centres in 48 countries.
