First-in-Human Clinical Trials

Our researchers and medical doctors are collaborating with scientists and physicians all over the world who are working to find better treatment options, and ultimately a cure, for brain cancer. Some of the most exciting trials are being hosted right here at the Preston A. Wells Jr. Center for Brain Tumor Therapy, including several trials that are being implemented for people for the first time. Some of the most unique trials in the world are being led by researchers and doctors here on our campus.
