Clinical Trials 

We are members of multiple national groups that conduct clinical trials. These include:

•  Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB)
•  National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP)
•  Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG)
•  Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG)
•  Pediatric Oncology Group (POG) (via the Vermont Cancer Center)
  
  Treatment on clinical trials is often an excellent option in cancer care. You may be invited to participate in a clinical trial of new cancer treatments.
  
  Members of the Hematology/Oncology Unit design and conduct treatment trials for all types of cancer. Available clinical trials employ a variety of immunologic, anti-angiogenic, receptor targeting, chemotherapeutic, and other investigational agents.  
  
  Other research areas in the unit include cancer genetics, supportive care (for example, treatments for nausea and fatigue), and blood clotting.
