Clinical Trials

A clinical trial is a research study meant to help improve current treatments or obtain information on new treatments for patients with cancer. The Lacks Cancer Center at Saint Mary’s Health Care regularly conducts research and clinical trials in conjunction with the Grand Rapids Clinical Oncology Program (GRCOP) and with funding from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Community Clinical Oncology Program (CCOP). We partner with 300 physicians to access almost 150 cancer research studies for patients living in 38 counties.

If you are interested in becoming a part of a clinical trial please contact us at 1-877-LACKS-MI or 616-685-LACK(S).
