Patient Advocates: Guiding Cancer Patients Through Clinical Trials
Karen explains that patient advocates assist in finding clinical trials, arranging consultations, and managing logistics. "Connecting with a patient advocate will never be a mistake," she says. Some advocates bill for services, while others are salaried by centers. Karen emphasizes the importance of finding an advocate familiar with the patient's diagnosis.
