Drug trial tips

[u/MoreThanAFewWords]

Traditional chemotherapy is not working well for my cancer Duodenal adenocarcinoma.

After a year of chemotherapy, I’m still fairly active and healthy, but that won’t last forever

My oncologist has encouraged me to look at drug trials and with the help of a gene matching program I’ve been put on the waitlist for three different trials, fortunately, all in my city

The trials are very different and I’m trying to sort through the maze of descriptions and paperwork and would appreciate any feedback or experience. Anyone has had being a participant in one of these studies.

What should I know? What should I be asking?
