Funded in partnership with the Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation through the 2024 Dribble for Victory
Clinical trials help improve the treatment of children with cancer. But, it takes a lot of work to be able to offer clinical trials to patients. This grant will help us add another person our research team part-time. This person will gather information about clinical trials and share it with patients, families, and other providers so that people know what we have available at Duke. They will work with other doctors at Duke who treat children and young adults with cancer to make sure we are all offering clinical trials to our patients. They will also follow up with survivors of pediatric cancer to let them know of any available research options. By doing these things, we hope to be able to offer clinical trials to more patients.
