AI-generated summary
Robert Stradling was a 62-year-old male prisoner who died from metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.

In early April 2011, he was diagnosed with metastatic lung cancer with cerebral and mediastinal spread confirmed on post-mortem imaging. He died on the St Augustine security ward approximately one month after diagnosis.
