Clinical Trials

Sutter Solano Cancer Center wants you to be well informed about your cancer diagnosis and any clinical trials related to your diagnosis that may be available.

Clinical trials show us what works and what doesn’t in medicine. Choosing whether or not to take part in a clinical trial is a very personal and sometimes difficult decision. Clinical trials are not just for patients that feel they have exhausted all other treatment options. They are for patients that want to explore new treatments and help in the determination of how safe and effective they are.

Knowing about and understanding the benefits of cancer-related clinical trials will help you make an informed decision about whether participation in a clinical trial would be a good option for you. Learn more about such trials and discuss this information with your physician. Together you will develop the best cancer care treatment plan for you and your current health status.

Please talk to your physician or contact us at 707-554-5326 to learn more about the clinical trials being offered at Sutter Solano Cancer Center.
