Research and the University of Pennsylvania Cancer Network

If you have cancer or are at increased risk for certain types of cancer, you may benefit from a clinical trial. Clinical trials are research studies conducted with volunteers. Studies answer scientific questions and try to find better ways to prevent, screen for, diagnose or treat a disease.

Warren Hospital offers several clinical trials, many through our membership in the University of Pennsylvania Cancer Network.
