Complete a Patient Profile
To begin the matching process, complete a Patient Profile
questionnaire for yourself, a loved one, or your patient. To begin,
click
Create a Patient Profile.
-
The Patient Profile is a questionnaire
that asks about a patient's diagnosis, condition, and treatment history.
- We encourage you to talk with your doctor or nurse to
answer some of the detailed medical questions.
- You can save, complete or update your Patient Profile
at any time.
- You can also delete your Patient Profile at any time.
- You can submit the profile for matching even
if you select " Not sure "
for some answers. Please be aware that the more information you
provide, the greater your chance of matching to a trial.
- You may
Contact Us by email or call our
toll-free number at 1-877-601-8601 if you have questions
about filling out the profile.

Match to Clinical Trials
After completing or updating a Patient Profile,
click the Match to Trials button. Your answers are then
compared to the clinical trial entry criteria
and the locations of each clinical trial in our database.

You will see a list of clinical trials that have openings for patients who match the profile you submitted.

Each profile you create - along with
the match results - is stored automatically

Answer Additional Questions
You may be asked additional questions that will help
determine your eligibility for specific trials in the database.
After you answer these questions, they are added
to your Patient Profile and
you can resubmit it for matching.
-
A message at the top of the list of matched
clinical trials will indicate that the profile might match
additional studies, but more information is needed.

Review Your Match Results
We strongly encourage you to review your match results with a trusted
doctor to determine which of the clinical trials, if any, might be
appropriate for you. You may also wish to talk with other patients
or a patient advocacy organization. Remember: Deciding to
participate in a clinical trial is your choice.

Submit an Application
You may continue the process of connecting to any of
the clinical trials that interest you by
providing with your phone
number and e-mail address. We will also
ask you for permission to contact you
(see our
Privacy Policy).
Our staff will contact you by telephone or by e-mail (if you have given permission to do so) to verify your application
and help provide more information about the clinical trial, give you the trial coordinator's contact information, and help lay out
the steps you need to take to make your first appointment.

contact information, it will be your responsibility to schedule the appointment with the study coordinator. However, members
of the staff can help you. Call our
toll-free number at 1-877-601-8601.

Remember that the clinical trial coordinator must get additional
information from you before a final enrollment decision
can be made.
