“We get to spend a lot of one-on-one time with patients throughout their treatment. This personal connection helps patients feel cared for, and it also makes us unique.”

Clinical Trials

We make promising new treatments available to you through studies called clinical trials led by Fred Hutch physicians. Many of these trials at Fred Hutch have led to FDA-approved treatments and have improved standards of care globally. Together, you and your physician can decide if a study is right for you.
