i have just completed your survey which asks if I would like to know about suitable clinical trials. I have ticked the yes box but am unsure about where to sign up to receive the information. Can you help?

Hello BOW

CRUK have a search mechanism for clinical trials which can be accesssed on the link below. Sorry links don't always work on this platform so if it doesn't just copy and paste into your search bar.

cancerresearchuk.org/about-...

It is also something that is worth raising with your clinical team. They should be able to advise on any trials that they can link you in with, whether specific to the hospital you are attending or linked to activity at another cancer centre.

Hi Lorraine, thanks for your quick reply. I saw my Consultant yesterday and she says that changes have shown up in the lower part of my right lung on the ct scan. She is unsure if these changes are an infection or the cancer. It has been agreed that I will have another ct scan in a couple of months to see if there has been any further change.

I am currently taking crizotinib and wonder if anyone out there has had crizotinib and is now on new treatment. If so, what the treatment is etc

Thanks

Sally
