Find a Clinical Trial
With our more than 160 cancer researchers and physicians working together, we’re making scientific discoveries that translate into better treatments and better health for our patients. In fact, some of our treatments are used in hospitals around the country and the world.
If you’re a current patient, the first step is to talk to your doctor about trials that you might be eligible for. Keep in mind that we open new trials often, so check the clinical trials directory below for a complete list of active studies.
If you and your doctor decide a clinical trial is best, a UAMS research team that includes doctors, nurses, social workers, dietitians, and other health care professionals will work with you. They will provide your care, monitor your health carefully, and give you specific instructions about the study.
