The unthinkable has happened: you’re a young person, and yet you’ve been diagnosed with cancer. You are parents, and your child has a tumour – maybe before they’ve even learned to walk.
All you want is for you or your child to be healthy again. You want the most effective treatment without unnecessary suffering – and without long-term consequences.
This is exactly what doctors are studying in clinical trials and research projects.
Trials offer the best treatment
Research doesn’t just provide insights for future patients. Participating in a trial also has direct benefits: Young patients receive treatment based on the latest scientific findings. In addition, studies always benefit from the expertise of an international panel of specialists.
The treatment team at your hospital will recommend participating in a study if one is available for your or your child’s cancer. Because treatment within a study benefits participants – and drives medical progress.
