HaDEA has published the EU4Health call for proposals EU4H-2026-SANTE-PJ-01 to contribute to the implementation of gastric cancer screening programmes.

This action may include the following activities:

• Facilitating implementation research via new pilots and programme rollout initiatives through monitoring and assessment of on-going implementation studies;
• Collection and assessment of benefits/harms data and other data on outcomes, quality assurance and cost-effectiveness relating to gastric cancer screening programmes from the national level based on the established methods, infrastructure, and networks within the previous EU4Health Programme funded projects;
• Linking relevant experts and representatives from European medical societies and patient organisations to ensure broad outreach to corresponding national partner societies and patient organisations;
• Effective dissemination as well as bidirectional knowledge exchange with all Member States relating to gastric cancer screening;
• Close collaboration with related projects, such as those covering lung and prostate cancer screening, and the Joint Action Implementation of cancer screening programmes (‘EUCanScreen’);
• Close collaboration with the Commission’s Joint Research Centre, and the alignment with the outputs of the planned Commission Initiative on Gastric Cancer; and exploration of the potential of AI in gastric cancer screening.
