Clinical Trial
Access

Clinical trials have the power to
save lives — but only if patients
can access them.

Originally launched in partnership with More Moments More Memories.

Increasing Access to
Life-Saving Cancer Care

Launched in 2023 in partnership with More Moments More Memories, our Clinical Trial Access
connects patients enrolled in clinical trials to our free Financial Resource Center. This critical
support helps patients and their families afford basic needs like housing, transportation food,
and utilities, eliminating financial barriers to life-saving clinical trials.

Barriers to Clinical Trials

Thousands of cancer patients turn down or stop participating in clinical trials due to high out-of-pocket costs.

<30%

less likely to enroll
if household income is
below $50,000³

Who We’re Reaching

In addition to a dedicated Clinical Trial Access, we reach patients on clinical
trials through our nationwide network of treatment centers and community-based
nonprofit organizations.
