About Us

At the Juravinski Cancer Centre Clinical Trials Department, we provide leading edge care while advancing knowledge about cancer and its treatment.

Established in 1981, our Clinical Trials Department consists of highly trained research staff and oncologists who give patients the option to participate in research studies, known as clinical trials, as an important part of their care. Our research program supports a large number of clinical trials covering all cancer types and stages.

By conducting high quality research, we offer patients access to the latest treatments and give hope to future patients by generating new knowledge.
