While academic centers are critical in the fight against cancer, more than 80% of cancer patients receive their care in community clinics like SNCC. Our physicians use clinical trials to provide the broadest array of treatment options for our patients. Some patients desire access to promising new therapies. Others have hard-to-treat cancer types. Many also participate in trials not only for themselves but in hopes of helping future generations. Our research staff helps patients and their physicians review trial protocols that may be an option.
