Patient perspectives on involvement in cancer research in the UK.

The patient's perspective is offered to identify the benefits of patient involvement in the research process so that it will lead to research that is reliable and relevant to cancer patients' needs. A brief outline of recent consumer involvement in research and initiatives being undertaken in the UK will provide a guide for those seeking to consider what has already been achieved. Practical suggestions are offered to those seeking to facilitate this mode of working. A wider conceptual approach suggests the interrelationships that should be built, through networks of communication, so that efficient, effective, economic and equitable health care may be provided to all those suffering from cancer. This should lead to an appreciation of work that still needs to be undertaken to achieve progress.
