When it comes to clinical trials, Alberta is a leader in the country. These trials are essential to finding new ways to treat, detect and prevent cancer and improve the quality of life for cancer patients. In this issue, we take a closer look at clinical trials and explore the cutting-edge research and studies making a significant impact on diagnoses and patient outcomes.
For many Albertans facing cancer, their journey doesn’t end when treatment does. Cancer survivors and thrivers require specific care and support to help them navigate their new normal, and the Alberta Cancer Foundation helps fund many of these essential resources.
