Dear Carey
Yes, you may wish to contact the National Cancer Institute at
1-800-4cancer for the current or pending clinical trials being performed
and I am sending you a number of websites for your research. Hope this
helps.
God Bless
Marty
The National Cancer Institute...can be reached by internet and phone and
will advise on the latest clinical trials available, who is conducting
them and where. Phone is 1-800-4CANCER and two good sites are
http://www.nci.nih.govhttp://rex.nci.nih.gov
One site is more technical, the other more general...both are valuable.
Another site for general cancer information is the NCCS Guide to Cancer
Resources at:
http://www.access.digex.net/~mkragen/non-java.html
Two of the best cancer hospitals in the United States are:
M D Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas
http://www.mdanderson.org
and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City
