answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/06/2018 answer text <p>Public Health England ran a regional pilot ovarian campaign in the North West of England from 10 February to 16 March 2014. The campaign’s key message was ‘Feeling bloated, most days, for three weeks or more could be a sign of ovarian cancer. Tell your doctor’.</p><p> </p><p>The public awareness survey results, general practice attendance data and referrals data suggest that the regional campaign did have an effect on the target audience’s understanding of the key symptom of ‘bloating’. However, the results showed no impact on diagnoses and there has not been any further roll out of the campaign.</p><p> </p><p>Results for the number of cancers diagnosed, the stage at cancer diagnosis and survival have shown no evidence of an impact, although it has been difficult to evaluate due to small numbers, the availability of the data sets and a time lag in terms of the effect.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 11/06/2018 14:47:30 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/12/2017 answer text <p>The initial focus of the cancer dashboard was to report on tumours with the highest incidence rates. NHS England intends to explore other tumour types in the dashboard over time. However, it is important to note that it will not be possible to include detailed data on some rarer cancers at clinical commissioning group level due to the low number of cases. It may be possible to include data on these cancers by larger geographical areas, such as Cancer Alliances or Sustainability and Transformation Partnership areas.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 13/12/2017 14:02:10 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
