Cancer
Framing
- This cluster covers site-specific solid tumours by organ of origin - each with a distinct risk factor profile, screening approach (where applicable), and treatment pathway, though many share common presenting features (weight loss, site-specific obstructive/mass symptoms) and staging principles
- Recognising site-specific red-flag presentations (e.g. persistent hoarseness for laryngeal cancer, painless jaundice for pancreatic cancer) drives early referral, since stage at diagnosis is the dominant determinant of outcome across nearly all solid tumour types
