During your cancer care at the Vancouver Cancer Centre you may receive one of our standard treatments or be asked to participate in a research study (clinical trial). As part of national or international groups we are fortunate to be able to offer some studies which will provide information about the effectiveness of new cancer treatments. If your physician believes that any of the studies would be suitable for your particular cancer you will receive all of the information and be asked to give informed consent to enter the study.

Your health and comfort are very important to us. We have a well-trained staff available to meet your needs and to help you with any problems, questions, or concerns that you might have about your illness and care.
