Clinical TrialClinical trials are new treatments of lung cancer invented in order to improve already existing treatments. These new treatments are usually tested on patients whose lung cancer condition is not improving with the already existing treatments. Clinical trials involve research studies that helps to discover treatments that are safer and more effective than existing treatments. Clinical trial treatment is important, because it enables doctors to understand which treatment will be most effective when performed on a cancer patient. Clinical trials have also helped doctors to discover targeted treatments and also help in discovering combinations of existing treatments to produce a successful outcome.

However, if a clinical trial treatment turns out to be effective, it may become the new standard of treatment to focus on. Due to the progress made through clinical trials, a lot of cancer patients have survived, and they are living longer than they were meant to live. Patients of lung cancer are advised to enroll in clinical trial in order to have a chance of surviving the cancer. Most times, patients receiving clinical trial treatment are usually the first to receive the treatment before it becomes a standard treatment.

Moreover, clinical trials come in diverse procedures; some clinical trials only involves patients who have not yet received treatment. This implies that patients who have already been treated are not eligible for a particular type of clinical trial. Some clinical trials are for patients whose health condition has not improved after receiving treatment. There are other clinical trials that test new ways to stop cancer from reoccurring, and there are clinical trials that are performed to reduce the side effect of cancer treatments.

Conclusively, clinical trials are welcomed innovations used to increase the surviving rate of cancer patients. Patients who decide to take their chances on clinical trials contribute to the improvement of the ways cancer can be treated. In a situation where a particular clinical trial did not work out as initially hoped, it doesn’t mean it was a failure because a step forward has just been established.
