Developing new ways to treat cancer.
We currently conduct clinical trials in association with the National Cancer
Institute, Johns Hopkins University, and a cooperative group of medical
professionals from around the world.
What are clinical trials?
Clinical Trials are research studies that involve patient participation.
This method of research is intended to expand medical knowledge and develop
new treatment methods. Clinical trials provide researchers with valuable
information about treatments that are not in general use, and they provide
patients with access to the newest drugs. Most standard cancer treatments
used today began as clinical trials.

Is a clinical trial right for me?
You may decide to participate in a clinical trial in the hopes of improving
chances of recovery, prolonging life, or even helping other cancer patients
in the future.
