Abstract
Mission Statement:
“Cancer survivors sharing clinical trial experiences to increase awareness and knowledge in the search for prevention and cure.”
Vision Statement:
Our goal is to increase the awareness of cancer clinical trials available in West Michigan. The Patient Advisory Committee for Clinical Research was formed to capture the passion that clinical trial participants possess in searching for a cure for a disease that has personally affected them. Fear often accompanies a cancer diagnosis. The vision is to replace fear with the knowledge that is brought through clinical trials. The Patient Advisory Committee for Clinical Research's objective is to make cancer clinical trials information available and increase general public awareness of this treatment option.
