Development and testing of a lymphoma clinical trial-specific frailty index: a secondary analysis of the CCTG LY12 clinical trial
The CEC6 trial, a Phase III intergroup study of radiotherapy with concomitant and adjuvant temozolomide versus radiotherapy with adjuvant pcv chemotherapy in patients with 1p/19q co-deleted anaplastic glioma or low-grade glioma, has closed to further accrual as the study has met the target sample size.
The New Investigator Clinical Trials Course (NICTC) is fast approaching and has already reached the maximum registration. The course will be held from August 21st to the 23rd at the Donald Gordon Hotel and Conference Centre in Kingston, Ontario.
NICTC is an important component of the group mandate to provide and facilitate investigator education and training. The major goal of the course is to familiarize new investigators from across the country with the essentials of clinical trial conduct in the Canadian research environment.
