CLINICAL TRIALS IN PROSTATE CANCER
Clinical trials are research studies performed with patients that are aimed at evaluating a medical, surgical, or behavioral intervention. They are the primary way that researchers find out if a new treatment, like a new drug or diet or medical device, is safe and effective in people. All current prostate cancer treatments are available because of past clinical trials and thanks to past clinical trial participants. There are many clinical trials available for advanced prostate cancer patients. Oftentimes people do not participate in a clinical trial because they did not know they were eligible or that one is available. Be sure to ask your doctor if a clinical trial may be right for you. To learn about available clinical trials, please visit our clinical trial finder tool at zerocancer.org/find-a-clinical-trial .
