Every cancer center in the Aptium Oncology network is also a research center, offering patients and physicians the opportunity to participate in clinical research. Every year these centers enroll hundreds of patients in industry, cooperative group, and other clinical trials-a process made simple by the master contracts that Aptium Oncology maintains.
