What are clinical trials?

Clinical trials are research studies that test how well new medical approaches work for people. Clinical trials can provide scientific answers about better ways to prevent and treat cancer. As participants in a cancer clinical trial, people have the opportunity to contribute to important research in the fight against cancer.

Who can join a clinical trial?

Eligibility depends on the specific trial. Current openings are listed through Cancer Research for the Ozarks. If you're interested, talk to your physician first to see what trials may be a good fit.
