Clinical Research and Trials

Clinical researchers at the UMass Cancer Center are actively engaged in cutting-edge clinical research trials, both at the local and national levels, to evaluate new chemotherapy treatment options for a variety of cancers, improve surgical procedures for quality and outcomes improvement, and identify novel markers for diagnostic and prognostic predictors of outcome. We perform collaborative translational research, which focuses on iterative feedback loops between the basic science and clinical research domains to accelerate knowledge translation from the bedside to the bench, and back again.
