Prof. Hashim Ahmed (@LondonProstate1), consultant urological surgeon and Chief Investigator of TRANSFORM, said: “The extension of the study is a huge step forwards and we hope it will help to fill the current gaps in evidence and inform future decisions on national screening."
We're expanding research, widening treatment options and tackling inequalities in prostate cancer care.
✅ All eligible Black men will be invited to join a landmark screening trial.
✅ A targeted NHS screening programme will also be rolled out.

More black men will be offered prostate cancer checks as part of the Transform trial.
Black men are known to be at increased risk of prostate cancer - double the risk of other men.

Today we're stepping up the fight against prostate cancer.
Black men face a significantly higher risk of developing and dying from the disease.
That’s why we're taking action by ensuring all eligible Black men are invited to join a vital new trial. Early diagnosis saves lives✅

Interesting to see that majority of urology consultants responding to this agreeing with National Screening Committee decision on not screening the general population for prostate but disagree with recommendations not to screen Black men and those with family history.
