Patient Representative Spotlight: Martina Wood

Supporting the CCTG Breast Committee
Patient Representative Spotlight: Martina Wood

Meet Martina Wood a breast cancer survivor and a member of the CCTG breast committee. Our teams are proud to work with volunteers like Martina who ensure the patient voice is part of our clinical trial development.

"When my husband was diagnosed, we were given some papers about a clinical trial to consider, but nobody took the time to explain what it was about, what the trial phase designation meant. I would like trials to be more patient-centric, and clinicians to be more involved so that they understand and can communicate the benefits and risks of the trial they are proposing."
