The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is actively transforming clinical trials to revitalize the clinical trials system and improve patient accrual. For more than 30 years, NCI has provided information and communication resources about cancer clinical trials. The Institute supports a clinical trials Web site (www.cancer.gov/clinicaltrials) that receives nearly a half million page views a month. In addition, NCI's Cancer Information Service (800-4-CANCER, chat and e-mail) responds to 1,750 clinical trial inquiries every month. Although these numbers suggest that a high volume of clinical trial information is being exchanged between NCI, the public, and providers, most patients decide whether to participate in clinical trials during the patient-provider interaction.
美国国家癌症研究所(NCI)正在积极转变临床试验,以重振临床试验系统并提高患者入组率。30 多年来,NCI 一直提供有关癌症临床试验的信息和交流资源。该机构支持一个临床试验网站(www.cancer.gov/clinicaltrials),每月的页面浏览量接近 50 万次。此外,NCI 的癌症信息服务(800-4-CANCER,聊天和电子邮件)每月会收到 1750 次临床试验咨询。尽管这些数字表明 NCI、公众和医疗服务提供者之间正在进行大量的临床试验信息交流,但大多数患者是在医患互动期间决定是否参与临床试验的。
