Under the Horizon Europe research and innovation programme 2021-2027, five EU missions have been launched to bring concrete solutions to some of the current greatest challenges, including Mission Cancer.

The overarching goal of the EU Cancer Mission is to improve the lives of more than 3 million people by 2030 through prevention, cure and for those affected by cancer, including their families, to live longer and better.

The deadline for the all the topics is 18th of Septembre, 2024

Mission Cancer topics

With a total budget of 119 million euros, Mission Cancer has several topics, here 2 of them:

HORIZON-MISS-2024-CANCER-01-03: Accessible and affordable test to advance early detection of heritable cancers in European regions

It will focus on validating, testing and scaling up easy-to-use genetic, multi-omics or other biomarker-based tests for the early detection of cancers with an underlying inherited genetic risk, with a view to their adoption in regional or national health systems.

The projects should be between the TRL 5 and 7.

With a budget of 35 million euros, The Commission estimates that an EU contribution of between EUR 10.00 and 12.00 million would allow these outcomes to be addressed appropriately.

HORIZON-MISS-2024-CANCER-01-05: Improving the understanding and management of late-effects in adolescents and young adults with cancer

This topic will contribute to the achievement of the Mission’s objective to improve the quality of life of cancer patients, survivors, and their families. The focus should be exclusively on adolescent and young adult (AYA, age range 15-39) cancer patients and survivors.
