Clinical Trials at HOAF
Here at Hematology Oncology Associates of Fredericksburg, it is our goal to offer cutting-edge care and opportunities for treatment that may not be widely available. This includes new oncology drugs as well as currently approved treatments being used in new indications. Our research department has continually been recognized by industry-leading sponsors as a top-ten site in the United States for accruals and site operations. Our trials are hand-picked by our physicians and staff to address the immediate needs of our community and our patients.
Clinical trials currently available include those for certain types of lung cancer, breast cancer, head and neck cancer, and multiple myeloma. Our office also participates in “Time Trials,” where we have the ability to open a trial based on molecular testing. These trials target specific tumor-mutations identified during testing, with the potential of offering a tailored approach to treatment. There are also supportive-care options for trials, aimed at helping patients manage side effects of diagnosis and treatment.
Patients who are interested in participating in a clinical trial have to meet specific criteria, and our qualified team of nurse coordinators will work with each patient individually to ensure that a trial is an appropriate option for them.
