What are cancer clinical trials – Hindi Video
What do clinical trials for lung cancer mean?
A clinical trial is a research method used to find the best possible treatment for any cancer. You can learn about them in more detail here.
What are the advantages of participating in lung cancer clinical trials?
Lung cancer clinical trials advance science while treating patients
Participating in clinical trials for lung cancer gives patients several advantages:
- Opportunity to access new drugs/treatments which would otherwise not be available to a patient. For example, stage 4 lung cancer patients who receive only chemotherapy tend to live for less than 1 year on average. On the other hand, many patients who participated in cancer clinical trials of targeted therapy/immunotherapy have survived for many years with little or no side effects.
- Free treatment of cancer: Many new cancer treatments are costly, some costing lakhs per month. Clinical trial participation allows access to these costly drugs at zero cost to patient.
- Close supervision during treatment: Clinical trials are only approved after close supervision by designated government and non-government agencies. Thus, clinical trial participation means that the patient gets the best possible treatment available today.
- Chance to participate in advancement of medical science: The miraculous treatments available today would not have been possible without clinical trials conducted years ago.
What is meant by inclusion and exclusion criteria?
Every lung cancer patient is not allowed to join a clinical trial. Clinical trials have select criteria and only patients who meet the criteria are allowed to join.
