While we are happy to see cancer clinical trials getting more attention in the news, we feel it is important that people understand that the best way to get the most comprehensive and unbiased information about clinical trials is through a non-profit service who will not be influenced by third party objectives. This idea is highlighted in a 2001 Forrester Report, eRecruiting for Clinical Trials, that concluded that the solution to many problems in clinical trial recruitment lies in the creation of a cancer clinical trial consortium.
