American Cancer Society Clinical Trials Matching Service
The American Cancer Society Clinical Trials Matching Service is a free, confidential program that helps patients, their families and health care workers find clinical trials most appropriate to a patient's medical and personal situation.
ASH/LLS Clinical Trial Support Center
Clinical Trial Support Center Available to Connect Patients with Blood Cancer to Clinical Trials
ASH and The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) Clinical Trial Support Center (CTSC) have collaborated to enhance access to LLS’s free service providing clinical trials navigation and support to health care professionals, and patients with blood cancer and their families. ASH member physicians and their care teams, along with patients and caregivers, receive one-on-one support from LLS's CTSC Nurse Navigators and have direct access to them for the duration of the search and enrollment process, and while patients are on the trials. LLS’s Nurse Navigators play a critical role in investigating which trials are open and currently enrolling, and thus are needed now more than ever to provide direction. ASH members can learn more about the service and patient referral process by visiting the ASH portal.
