Many patients don’t realize that clinical trials are a way to get tomorrow’s treatments today. Joining us on the podcast to discuss this topic further, is Dr. Anne Mette Buhl, senior scientist at the Clearity Foundation, an advocacy group that improves the survival and quality of life of women suffering from ovarian cancer. Anne Mette talks us through the different phases of trials, the benefits of the Clearity clinical trials finder, and what patients need to be aware of when it comes to the eligibility criteria of oncology clinical trials.

“A common misconception is that a clinical trial is something you consider once you have already used up all your other options – and I think that's very wrong.”
