note = "Funding Information: REQUITE is funded by the European Union through its Seventh Framework Programme. The objectives of the project are to: (i) carry out a multicentre, cohort study collecting blood samples, epidemiology and treatment data, longitudinal side-effect and quality of life data (before and after treatment, years 1 and 2); (ii) produce a centralised database and biobank of DNA for 5300 patients; (iii) validate published biomarkers of radiosensitivity; (iv) validate clinical predictors of radiotherapy toxicity and incorporate biomarker data; (v) design interventional trials to reduce long-term side-effects; (vi) provide a resource for dissemination and exploitation to the radiotherapy community. The project focuses on cancers of the breast, lung and prostate. ",
