Clinical Research
Cancer clinical trials are at the heart of all treatment advances and are key to developing new methods to prevent, detect, and treat cancer. It is through clinical studies that researchers can determine whether new treatments are safe, effective, and if they work better than what is currently available to patients. When you take part in a clinical trial, you add to knowledge about cancer and help improve cancer care for yourself and others.
The Bassett Cancer Institute has been providing access to cutting edge treatments in a convenient, local setting for over 40 years. Bassett Healthcare Network's membership in the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) allows access to numerous clinical trials through the Clinical Trials Support Unit (CTSU), funded by The National Institutes of Health (NIH) and The National Cancer Institutes (NCI).
Why Should I Consider a Clinical Trial?
Clinical trials are voluntary. Participants receive high-quality care that experts believe may have the potential to become a new standard of cancer treatment. Treatments might be new drugs or new combinations of drugs, new devices, or new ways to use existing treatments. When patients participate in a clinical trial, they are contributing to research that could bring new treatments one step closer to reaching patients across the nation.
ACT (About Clinical Trials) is a great resource for patients considering participation in a clinical trial. The experts and participants in these videos help educate about clinical trials, including what questions to ask about available treatment options, what to consider before participating in a trial, and how to know if a particular trial may be a good option for you.
