Talk with your child’s oncologist at Studer Family Children’s Hospital at Ascension Sacred Heart about available clinical trials for your child’s type of cancer. We can discuss the benefits of participating in a clinical trial as part of their treatment. Your child’s doctor can help you decide if a clinical trial is right for your child.
Studer Family Children’s Hospital is a member of the Children's Oncology Group, a National Cancer Institute-supported clinical trials group and the world’s largest organization dedicated to pediatric cancer research. As part of the Children’s Oncology Group, our specialists collaborate with doctors and researchers from across the world to bring new and advanced treatment options to our patients. At Studer Family Children’s Hospital, your child has the opportunity to participate in some of the latest clinical trials.
Many factors affect a child’s eligibility for clinical trials. Even if your child does not participate in a clinical trial, they may be cared for using the most up-to-date treatments developed by the Children’s Oncology Group. Talk with your child’s doctor to learn more.
