Thinking about leading your own clinical trial? A new directory brings together the key Australian and NSW resources for investigator-initiated cancer trials, mapped to each stage from concept to activation.
The ReViTALISE Project, in partnership with Goulburn Valley Health and Rumbalara Aboriginal Co-operative Ltd, has launched three videos by mob, for mob on the Lotjpa Yapaneyepuk YouTube channel to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in understanding and accessing cancer clinical trials.
In this session, we explored how clinical trials work and the vital role nurses play in delivering safe, informed, and compassionate care. Participants gained a practical understanding of patient recruitment, what trial participation involves, and how nurses support patients throughout every stage of their journey.
Helping women understand and access clinical trials is crucial to improving outcomes in ovarian cancer care. In response to feedback from women seeking clearer, more tailored information, Ovarian Cancer Australia has launched a new Clinical Trials Resource Hub to support patients, families and clinicians.
