Every cancer patient deserves a hospital that continues to search for the newest and most appropriate treatments.

Enrolling in clinical trials allows patients to potentially benefit from the latest breakthroughs, even before they become standard approaches. With more than 10% of GBMC cancer patients enrolled in these studies, we go well beyond most community hospitals in this area.

"These trials can potentially extend and save the lives of current patients, while preserving their quality of life and decreasing harmful side effects," Laura J. Morse Cucci, PhD, BSN, RN, Research Nurse Manager in the Sandra and Malcolm Berman Cancer Institute, said. "Our patients are contributing to the development of therapies that will save lives far into the future."

"I have added years to my life by being part of several trials," Ethel Zelenske, current patient and clinical trial participant, said. "Laura works closely with my doctors to make sure we are on track and always providing the right treatment."

We're more than just healthcare providers. We're your team. At GBMC, we face cancer, together.
