What if no results came up in my search?

There could be a couple of different reasons for this. First, it’s possible that there are no trials being conducted on patients with the stage and type of cancer that you’re researching.

But, it’s also possible that there are no relevant trials being conducted in the geographic area that you entered in the search form.

So, as a first step go back to the search form and remove any geographical data we put in. In our example, we put in New York City and we found 9 trials for stage 2 breast cancer.

In this example, I went back and searched again for treatment trials for stage 2 breast cancer leaving the geographic area box empty. I found a total of total of 94 trials.

If no results come up with the location box left empty then it means that there are no relevant trials listed on this site.

What if I want to find out what trials are taking place at famous cancer hospitals like The Mayo Clinic or M.D. Anderson?

The Advanced Search form at this site has a search box which allows you to search for trials taking place at a certain institution. For example, here I’m searching for all clinical trials for stage 2 breast cancer at the world famous Mayo Clinic:
