myC: first European-wide patient survey in genomic testing in breast cancer
On the 17th of November 2022, CPE launched the results of the first European-wide patient survey in genomic testing in breast cancer. 4 out of 5 breast cancer patients eligible for genomic testing are not told it is available to them. The survey was completed by a total of 1,383 respondents from five countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK) over a six-week period in September/October 2022. Eighty-three percent (83%) of respondents had breast cancer; 50% of whom were eligible for genomic testing.
The need for Cancer Patients Europe (CPE)

1. Lack of a Pan European Organisation across the European region with a balanced representation of cancer patients from all European countries

2. Growing need to bridge the European and the national dimensions

3. Only a transparent and credible organization can leverage the current prioritization of cancer care and treatment in Europe for the benefit of cancer patients
