Clinical Trials
I write in response to the interesting message in which a blog visitor enquires about clinical trials.
Firstly, I personally feel that patient participation in clinical trials is most important in the area of oncology.
Secondly, I suggest that the person interested in finding clinical trials follow the following course:
1. go to the national Cancer Institute website: www.cancer.gov. Then, go to "Types of Cancer" and
click on non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).
2. if the patient lives close to a hospital affiliated with a medical schooil, call the hospital and enquire
about clinical trials.
My participation in a clinical trial in which I received radioimmunotherapy as first-line therapy for NHL resulted in a wonderful result.
