Developing new therapies from medicine to procedures is the best way to cure cancer and save lives. Clinical trials are research studies involving people of all ages to see if a new drug or medical device is safe and effective. One of the nation’s top children’s hospitals for cancer care, Lurie Children’s offers more pediatric clinical trials than any other hospital in the state. With more studies, their specialists have many options when treating a child with cancer.
