Research

Blood Cancer Research Partnership's (BCRP) mission is to provide innovative clinical trials to patients closer to their home. Far too often, patients diagnosed with cancer do not have access to ground-breaking trials due to lack of proximity to large medical centers.

BCRP's main objective is to bring the novel trials to the patients across the country. We believe the collaboration between community oncologists and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute physicians will accelerate the advancement of and expansion of access to well-designed and innovative clinical trials for blood cancer patients being treated at community sites.
