A clinical trial is a research study that’s designed to find better ways to prevent, screen for, diagnose and/or treat cancer. Cancer treatments that are available today are a result of clinical trials and patients who were willing to help science find new and better ways to treat cancer. Clinical trials are an important care option that you should discuss with your healthcare team. We’ve curated “Questions to Ask My Healthcare Team” to help guide your discussions.
There are many clinical trials available to help find ways to improve cancer treatment, quality of life and even prevention. Talk to your oncologist about clinical trial options you are eligible for.
