For nearly half of people diagnosed with lung cancer, immunotherapy can slow the disease but not stop it. Funded through a $4 million joint investment from the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) and the Weston Family Foundation, a new clinical trial aims to change that.

A Canadian Cancer Trials Group update regarding the Protection of Human Research Participant Training
In September 2018, the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) released that the current free Protecting Human Research Participant (PHRP) training course would no longer be offered and neither would an alternative. In alignment with the NIH, CCTG confirmed that the CITI Human Subjects Research Course is an acceptable option for Human Subjects Protection training as well as training courses developed and administered at the institutional level.
The IND234 clinical trial, conducted by the Canadian Cancer Trials Group (CCTG), uses liquid biopsy technology to screen for genomic markers in prostate cancer patients.
After the liquid biopsy analysis, patients with specific DNA markers are assigned to one of five new therapies targeted at their unique form of prostate cancer. Researchers want to see if the markers identified in the screening process can help predict which patients will be helped the most by the targeted treatments.
Citations for two previously published CCTG trials are now available online.
The New England Journal of Medicine Notable Articles of 2018 recognizes the significance of the TAYLORx | CCTG MAC12 study, in addition, the Journal of Clinical Oncology has also named TAILORx as one of the most important clinical research advances of 2018.
