CANCER RESEARCH ONLINE MADE EASY

 

NCI CLINICAL TRIALS

 

 

The first site we’ll check is the NCI site www.cancer.gov where we found the treatment reviews.

 

 

Go back to the home page of www.cancer.gov:

 

 

 

clinical trials home page

 

Now, click on Clinical Trials in the bar just below the logo (red arrow) and you’ll see:

 

clinical trials advanced search

 

This is the basic search form and offers you the ability to enter the type of cancer, the stage/subtype of cancer, the type of trial, and the location of trial.

 

 

But, as I explained above it may be more efficient to go directly to the Advanced Search since it contains everything in the basic search and offers even more capability.

 

 

So, click on the Advanced Search link on the top right and you’ll see:

 

 

 advanced clinical trials

searching for advanced clinical trial data

 

 

 find  advanced clin trial data

 

As you can see there are many possible criteria to search for in the Advanced Search.

 

 

I recommend that for your first search you enter the type of cancer, the stage of cancer, the type of trial (you want treatment trials), and the geographic area in which you live.

 

 

However, if you’re looking for something even more specific, then you can avail yourself of the other search choices.
