Clinical Trials – Our patients have access to therapies arising from the latest national clinical investigations. Our division has made significant contributions through research to the body of medical literature guiding current, as well as, traditional therapeutic strategies. Patients may participate in on-going clinical investigations gaining access to therapies not available at many institutions or take advantage of the latest treatment concepts developed by previous trials. These may include:
- Novel Vaccine Trials - For some types of cancers, specialized vaccines help the body’s own immune system recognize tumor cells as foreign so that they can be destroyed. Cancer vaccines do not prevent cancer, but allow the body’s own defenses to attack existing or growing tumor cells.
- Therapeutic Clinical Trials for Advanced Disease
