“This Trial Gave Me Another Option”:
After exhausting standard treatments, a patient enrolled in an Alliance clinical trial that helped inform a new approach to care—illustrating how research can translate into real choices for patients.
What is the Alliance?
The Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology is a national research network that designs and conducts cancer clinical trials across academic and community cancer centers.
NCI-Supported Trials
We design and conduct NCI-supported clinical trials as part of the National Clinical Trials Network (NCTN), advancing evidence that shapes cancer care.
Industry-Sponsored Trials
We support industry-sponsored studies through Alliance Foundation Trials (AFT), expanding research opportunities using the same national network.
Academic + Community Network
We engage with investigators and patients across academic and community cancer centers nationwide, broadening access to clinical trials and accelerating enrollment.
