How does cancer start? - Cancer Research UK
A primary tumour is where the cancer starts. Some types of cancer start from blood cells. These are called blood cancers, such as leukaemia. They don't form solid tumours. Instead, the cancer cells build up in the blood and sometimes the bone marrow . For a cancer to start, certain changes take place within the genes of a cell or a group of cells.
