📌Think & talk about trials early in the tx course
📌Don’t expect your care-team to tell you about trials all over the 🇺🇸
📌Do your own #clinicaltrial search using trialfinders like @Ancora_AI@twitter.com & @FightCRC@twitter.com & bring a list to your care team to discuss

A 10.3. Patients always have full autonomy in a #clinicaltrial and can decide to leave the trial at any time, for any reason, no explanation needed.

Q11. What are some things to keep in mind as CRC patients look for trials?
#CRCTrialsChat #CRCSM #colorectalcancer @OncoAlert@twitter.com

Q 10.4 Myth or Fact? : Clinical trials are dangerous
#CRCTrialsChat #CRCSM #colorectalcancer @OncoAlert@twitter.com

Q 10.3 Myth or Fact?: If I enroll in a trial, I’m not allowed to quit
#CRCTrialsChat #CRCSM #colorectalcancer @OncoAlert@twitter.com

Q 10.2 Myth or Fact? : Clinical trials are a last resort

It seems there are quite a few clinical trial myths, let's look at some of them:
Q 10.1 Myth or fact? : I am just a Guinea pig being tested on:
#CRCTrialsChat #CRCSM #colorectalcancer @OncoAlert@twitter.com

A9.2
📌Sometimes patients benefitting from a #clinicaltrial are allowed to continue on the treatment indefinitely till it stops working for them. Not always the case though
📌Important to clarify how long the study drug may be available if it's working
#CRCTrialsChat #CRCSM

Q9. What happens to patients when a trial ends?
#CRCTrialsChat #CRCSM #colorectalcancer @OncoAlert@twitter.com

RT @NiuSanford@twitter.com

A8. 2 #ClinicalTrials direct costs
The 2nd set of direct costs is standard medical care costs:
-Treatments, tests, or procedures that patients would normally receive even if they were not participating in a trial.
Insurance will often cover these costs.

Another important patient concern:
Q8. Who pays for the costs of a clinical trial?
#CRCTrialsChat #CRCSM #colorectalcancer @OncoAlert@twitter.com

A7. About placebos
📌Patients worried they will not get treatment while on a trial is a common misconception.
📌Most trials do not have a placebo-only arm.
📌In early phase trials, patients will generally always receive the study treatments.
