Cancer Research
To provide our patients with the latest and most advanced treatments, Siteman Cancer Center offers about 500 clinical trials, which are designed to evaluate the effectiveness of innovative cancer therapies. By participating in a clinical trial, patients can gain access to experimental therapies that are not yet available to the public. Such therapies can include new drugs or new ways to use existing drugs, new radiation therapy, new kinds of surgery and new ways to combine different cancer treatments. Patient safety is the most important part of everything we do at Siteman Cancer Center, and that principle is applied to each of our clinical trials. Learn more about clinical trials here.
