Our Data Source

All trial information is sourced from the ClinicalTrials.gov database, which is maintained by the National Library of Medicine. This ensures that our users have access to the most current and comprehensive clinical trial information available.

Important Information

While we strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information, we do not screen, review, or approve any clinical trials listed on our platform. The decision to participate in a clinical trial should always be made in consultation with healthcare professionals who can evaluate the potential risks and benefits for each individual patient.

We are committed to maintaining the privacy and security of our users’ information while providing a valuable service to the brain tumor community.
