How is patient safety protected?
Patient safety is the most important part of everything we do, and that principle is applied to each of our clinical trials. Before any new drug is used in a trial, it is first tested for several years in a research laboratory, where experiments are done to confirm the drug is safe and possibly helpful for patients with cancer. Then, before any clinical trial is started at Siteman, it must first be reviewed and approved by a governing body that is dedicated solely to the protection of patients.
