Access to clinical trials can provide some people with melanoma the opportunity to explore emerging treatments and contribute to advancing melanoma care.
There are several trusted ways to find information about current clinical trials and research. You can also ask your doctor or you can explore the following:Â
MIA maintains a comprehensive and regularly updated list of their melanoma clinical trials. Visit their website to explore available trials and eligibility criteria.
An Australian Government initiative to provide information and resources to participants, healthcare providers, researchers and industry about taking part in, accessing and running clinical trials.
MASC is an independent, not‑for‑profit clinical trials group that collaborates with leading researchers to design and deliver clinical trials aimed at improving the prevention, detection and treatment of melanoma and skin cancer.
The Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ANZCTR) and ClinicalTrials.gov, allow you to search for melanoma studies by location, treatment type, or stage of disease.Â
Teletrial is a proven model that connects regional, rural, and remote clinical trial sites with a primary site using digital telecommunication. This approach builds local capacity, promotes equitable access to trials, and brings research closer to where patients live. Â
