Finding better treatments through clinical trials
The discovery of better cancer treatments depends on patients’ willingness to share their personal biological materials and data with researchers throughout their cancer journey. To reduce the cost and complexity of obtaining critical information for cancer research, a more standardized system for sharing patient samples and data is needed.
How it works
Centralized Management of Informed Consent
Centralized Access to Digital Image Libraries and Bio-specimens
Centralized Search Tools for Expedited Clinical Trial Enrollment
