Plain-language summaries of landmark cancer research, updated as they are published. Plus a tool to help you find clinical trials near you.
Most health websites tell you what cancer is. This one tells you what the research says about treating it — trial by trial, in plain English.
Every week a new summary of a landmark clinical trial — what was tested, what was found, and what it means for patients. No jargon, no spin.
Our AI-powered tool asks about your cancer type, treatment history, and location — then searches ClinicalTrials.gov and shows you trials you may actually qualify for.
Everything here is a starting point. Bring what you find to your next appointment — better informed, with better questions. Your doctor makes the final call.
Plain-language summaries of phase II and III clinical trials — now more than 30, spanning cancers of the breast, lung, prostate, kidney, liver, stomach, skin, colon, and more. Each explains what was studied, what the results showed, and what it means if you have that cancer.
Most patients never know about trials they might qualify for. Our tool asks the right questions — about your cancer type, treatment history, and where you live — and searches for recruiting trials near you.
I've been a practicing medical oncologist for over 15 years. I created this site because the gap between what we know from clinical trials and what patients are able to access in plain language is enormous — and entirely unnecessary.
Everything published here is based on peer-reviewed trial evidence. I write under a pen name to protect my patients' privacy, but the expertise is real.
Every summary is based on published phase II or III clinical trial data. No anecdote, no supplement claims, no unproven therapies — and where popular claims don't hold up to scrutiny, we say so clearly.
This site accepts advertising but has no relationship with any pharmaceutical company. No drug company has influenced, reviewed, or paid for any content published here.
Everything here is a starting point for conversations with your own oncologist — not a substitute for them. Your doctor knows your full situation in ways no website ever can.
