Every Trial Gives Hope: Tian Zhang Shared Reflections Ahead of ASCO 2025

Tian Zhang, Associate Director of Clinical Research at the Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center, shared a post on X:

“Traveling with mixed emotions to ASCO 25 this year. Celebrating science and the years of dedication, work, and patient contributions to cancer clinical trials. But science itself is under attack – defunding of preclinical discovery work will end up slowing our clinical advances. 
At the center of next few days ASCO 25: our patients. And — if we face our humanity, ourselves – as we age and deal with cancer. Nothing harder in my clinic than telling a patient “there are no more treatment options”. Every trial gives hope and every new drug gives more time.
That’s what we all want with this brief time on earth – More time to be productive. More time to see the world. More time with loved ones.”
