A cancer patient has been given a new lease of life after taking part in a clinical trial.

 54 year Preeti Dudakia from Purley took part in the SOLO-1 trial at The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust.

The trial was a National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) study which tested if patients benefitted from taking Olaparib, a drug that targets inherited genetic faults in cancerous tumours.

Preeti explains how the trial worked for her.
