Timeline

2013

Recognizing its potential, he then used the drug in cancers where tumour growth depended upon the hormones made by the testes and ovaries. He found the drug – a Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist – to be active in prostate cancer. He was the first clinician in Europe to report the clinical effects of this new medicine which, 30 years on, is still the drug of first choice in the treatment of patients with prostate cancer. The drug replaced castration which was the treatment at the time, providing a humane alternative to surgery.

2011

Jonathan helped establish the All-party Parliamentary Group on Cancer, the organisation behind the Britain Against Cancer movement. He has also written a medical law book, a novel and a book of short stories entitled The Elephant in the Room, published in October 2011.

2009

The Elephant in the Room was inspired by J.G. Ballard, author of Empire of the Sun and Crash. Waxman treated Ballard for prostate cancer until his death in 2009, and their treatment room conversations led to the proposal of a co-written book to be titled Conversations with my Physician: the Meaning, if any, of Life. When Ballard became too ill to complete the book, Waxman decided to finish it in tribute to his friend.

1996

In 1996 Waxman established The Prostate Cancer Charity, the first United Kingdom national organisation promoting research and patient support for prostate cancer. The organisation has since merged with Prostate Action, becoming Prostate Cancer UK, the biggest organisation of its kind in the UK. In 2014 the organisation employed 170 people and had an annual income of £32 million. Prostate Cancer UK lobbies for change in the environment for prostate cancer patients, funds research and provides a national and regional patient support and information service. Prostate Cancer UK is a beneficiary of the Movember Appeal, a multinational organisation dedicated to improving men's health.

1986

In 1986, Waxman became a consultant at the Hammersmith Hospital, moving to Imperial College in 2011 where he became the Flow Foundation Professor of Oncology. He established a clinical and laboratory research program, leading a laboratory research team with the goal to understand the mechanisms underlying the growth of prostate cancer, whilst continuing to carry out duties in the clinical environment. Active in the care of patients and running numerous clinical trials, Waxman has published around 400 research papers and book chapters, and 16 books on cancer.

1981

In 1981 Waxman embarked upon post-graduate research at St Bartholomew's Hospital, London, beginning by studying the effects of chemotherapy on fertility in cancer patients. He found that patients with lymphoma were sterilised by treatment; they were cured of the cancer but rendered infertile.

1951

Professor Jonathan Waxman (born 1951), founder and president of Prostate Cancer UK, is the Flow Foundation Professor of Oncology at Imperial College, London, and author of four novels including The Elephant in the Room. He is a clinician who has helped develop new treatments for cancer, which are now part of standard practice.
