Can't Join a Clinical Trial? Contribute to Research with Real-World Data
While participating in clinical trials is an excellent way to participate in AML research, it's not possible for every patient to do so.
People living with AML might live far away from an academic center, not fit typical qualifications for clinical trials, not have access to adequate transportation, or work a full-time job. They might have children or grandchildren to take care of at home or simply not be interested in a clinical trial at this time in their lives. These are just some of the barriers experienced by patients when considering a clinical trial.
However, just because you can't participate in a clinical trial doesn't mean participating in AML research is unattainable.
By connecting your medical records to HealthTree Cure Hub, you are joining over 14,000 patients who have generously donated their anonymized data to be reviewed by researchers. More numbers in data portals such as this mean more accurate data for those investigators who are performing blood cancer research.
