Dr Dario Trapani speaks to ecancer about a talk he presented at London Global Cancer Week 2025 on 'Innovation in cancer treatment and equity: ensuring emerging treatments reach all populations'.

He explains new therapies are often very costly, meaning that not all healthcare systems can afford to provide them and the ones that do suffer from this financial burden.

Dt Trapani believes we need to prioritise the treatments that have the highest level of value and deliver the best impact at a population level.
