Editorial by Susan Marlin, President and CEO of Clinical Trials Ontario.
Today, people are living longer lives due to successful cancer treatments that resulted from clinical trials.
At CTO, we are proud to support Ontario’s world-class cancer research community through programs like CTO Stream, which enables a single ethics review for all multi-site trials. Over 400 cancer studies have gone through the CTO Stream program since 2019, in collaboration with the Ontario Cancer Research Ethics Board. By streamlining ethics review while ensuring the highest quality standards, we can advance critical cancer research quickly so that more clinical trials opportunities are available and new treatments reach patients faster.
