Exempla Lutheran Medical Center recently began working closely with Colorado Cancer Research Program, a nonprofit community-based cancer program established to provide community hospitals and physicians access to a wide range of cancer research trials in order to provide their patients with greater options for the treatment, control, and prevention of cancer.
This partnership allows patients who are interested in participating in clinical trials the opportunity to do so. Clinical trials test the best way to treat, prevent and control cancer. The progress made today through the clinical trials process improves tomorrow's standard care and treatment.
-
Clinical research depends on people who are willing to participate in clinical trials as research subjects.

The rate of clinical trials participation determines how fast we advance the science
-
Only 3% to 5% people participate

Approximately 20% of adult cancer patients may be eligible
If you'd like to determine if you're eligible to participate in a clinical trial, feel free to call Judy Lawler at 303-403-3727. |
