Each of us, in some way, has been touched by cancer. We at Missouri Cancer Care, begin each day with an acute awareness of our responsibility to provide our patients access to the best care available in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. A big part of that care includes access to clinical trials. We seek out new knowledge so that effective treatments can get to our patients as quickly as possible. Missouri Cancer Care is committed to continuing efforts to reduce the burden of cancer through scientific discovery and its application to people.

Our Kisker Road location has recently welcomed Dr. Aislinn Vaughan, Fellowship-trained Breast Surgeon, to the H.W. Koenig Cancer Center. With the addition of Dr. Vaughan we will soon be offering patients access to clinical trial treatment options before they have surgery for breast cancer (this type of treatment is called neoadjuvant). Many of the trials we offer are approved and funded through the National Cancer Institute (NCI). We currently have open clinical trials in the following areas:

Breast Cancer
Advanced Colon Cancer
Lung Cancer Prevention
Early Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Advanced Small Cell Lung Cancer

If you would like more information about the clinical trials available at Missouri Cancer Care, or would like to ask a general question about cancer research, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
