  • Around half of all people will have a cancer diagnosis at some stage in their life, most commonly in their later years.
  • Cancer that is confined to its original location is easiest to treat, but cancer cells can break off and spread to other parts of the body.
  • Scientists studying how cancers spread have found that aspirin may help prevent metastases, or secondary tumors, by boosting the body’s immune response.
  • In their mouse study, aspirin helped immune cells to destroy spreading cancer cells.
  • Research is underway in people to investigate whether aspirin, or drugs that target the same pathway, could be used to help stop or delay the return of cancers.
