Cancer Clinical Trials The Basic Workbook

Clinical trials (CT) help move basic scientific research from the lab. into treatments for people. By evaluating the results of these CT, we can find better treatments & ways to prevent, detect, & treat cancer. However, most people understand very little about CT, & there are many barriers that discourage both physicians & potential participants from taking part in CT. This workbook guide will answer your questions about CT, whether you are a cancer survivor, someone who works with people with cancer, or someone who is touched by cancer in another way. The workbook will help you understand why cancer CT are important, how they work, how the participants' safety is protected, & some of the reasons why more adults don't participate in CT.Leonard, Barry is the author of 'Cancer Clinical Trials The Basic Workbook', published 2004 under ISBN 9780756740030 and ISBN 0756740037.
