A list of active investigative brain tumor protocols in North America is presented. The fact that there are 138 protocols (and certainly some have been missed) indicates the diversity and intensity of research into this difficult problem. The geographic diversity of institutions involved in brain tumor clinical trials also underscores the opportunity available to a large number of clinicians caring for patients with brain tumors to refer them for participation in such a study.
本文列出了北美正在进行的脑肿瘤研究方案。有138个方案(肯定有些被遗漏了)这一事实表明了针对这个难题的研究的多样性和强度。参与脑肿瘤临床试验的机构在地理上的多样性也凸显了大量照料脑肿瘤患者的临床医生将患者转诊参与此类研究的机会。
