Patients and families
Look for a clinical trial that might concern you, understand what it involves, and prepare the conversation with your doctor.
Search, one question at a time
The guided search asks you a few simple questions, in five steps: your cancer and its type, where you are and how far you are willing to travel, your age, your medical situation (stage, treatments already received, biomarkers if you know them), then the type of trial you are looking for.
If your cancer is not in the list, choose “Another cancer” and write it in your own words: that text then guides the search. On the summary screen, you can also add details. These texts are added to your answers without replacing them, and an artificial intelligence only reads them if you tick “AI analysis”.
No account is needed to search. Without an account, you can run up to 50 searches a day.
Reading the results
- Trials are grouped by location, from the nearest to the furthest.
- Each trial says why it matches your answers, or what to check with your doctor.
- Trials that your answers rule out are set aside, and the page says how many and why.
Understanding a trial
A trial record sets out its aim, criteria, treatments and sites. It can be shown in French, and in a simplified version written for patients.
Discussing it with your doctor
Print the list of trials found, or your selection, or save it as a PDF to bring to your appointment. Only your care team can tell whether a trial is right for you: GeoClinicalTrials results are for guidance only.
