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.

The Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) has renewed its support of the Canadian Cancer Trials Group (CCTG) with a five-year 30-million-dollar commitment to the national research network. The grant renewal represents a continuation of CCS’s largest research investment, which began in 1980 when they helped create the Canadian academic research group.

The book “Clinical Trials” by Daniel Schwartz, Robert Flamant and Joseph Lellouch, which described in full detail their distinction between pragmatic and explanatory clinical trials, was published in English in 1980, the year I became the NCIC CTG (now CCTG) director. Their ideas strongly influenced me and my colleagues thinking about how our trials should be designed and conducted.
