For Physicians
Give your patients more options close to home
Offering Access to the Latest Advancements
With the support of the National Cancer Institute, the Gulf South Clinical Trial Network brings together the leading cancer care providers in the region to provide access to the most advanced clinical trials available today. Because of this network, you can offer your patients state-of-the-art studies closer to their homes, families, and support systems.
Enrolling patients in clinical trials not only offers the patients more options, it also improves cancer outcomes, helps reduce cancer disparities, and over time we believe it will help decrease the overall cancer mortality rate in our region. As a physician, you play a significant role in changing the face of cancer in the Gulf South CTN.
It is easier than ever to enroll your patients in clinical trials at our more than 40 locations in our region. Search for clinical trials using the tool on the right or simply call our toll-free number, (866) 559-2476. Some prior treatments eliminate a patient’s eligibility so it is important to check for available trials before beginning treatment. Our team at Gulf South CTN will help screen your patient for eligibility and refer them to the nearest convenient location with the appropriate trial. Gulf South CTN oversees all of the regulatory requirements and, importantly, the patient returns to you when the trial is completed.
You can also join the Gulf South CTN is you are interested in providing clinical trials to your patients. Learn how to become a member below.
