Erika Hamilton shared on LinkedIn:

“Today is World Cancer Research Day.

Clinical trials couldn’t be more important in oncology. The advances we make every year to improve cancer outcomes are due to clinical trials.

Did you know a trial is appropriate at every step of cancer? From cured cancer, to early stage, to metastatic – there are clinical trials for most situations.”
