Clinical trials offer patients access to the very latest in cancer care, while giving physicians and researchers the opportunity to study the effectiveness of new treatments. With Advocate Christ Medical Center's active participation in clinical trials, patients have access to treatments before they are widely available.
Advocate Christ Medical Center's Cancer Institute participates in studies sponsored by the National Cancer Institute through groups such as the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group, the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group, the Gynecological Oncology Group, the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project and the American College of Surgeons Oncology Group. In addition, the Cancer Institute participates in several other national and international cancer studies sponsored by the pharmaceutical industry.
