Clinical trials are studies designed to find better ways to prevent or treat diseases like cancer.
Doctors believe it is important to have people of all races take part in clinical trials so that what is learned will help everyone. Standard treatment is the way patients are most often treated now. Only treatments that might be better than the standard are tested. Patients who join clinical trials will receive the standart treatment or a new type of treatment that may only be available to patients who join the trial. Patients who take part in trials are often given extra attention.
