A second opinion makes perfect sense

Many patients would like a second opinion or more detailed information about modern treatment methods, some of which are only available in clinical trials.

Since 2004, as a Cancer Expert, I have headed the Salzburg Cancer Research-Institute-Center for Clinical Cancer and Immunology Trials, and am now its scientific director. The institute conducts studies on novel treatment methods at the III Medical University Clinic under a framework agreement with SALK. To date, over 12,000 patients have been participated in trials and clinical programs, addressing over 87 types of cancer.

There are currently 90 clinical trials open – 56 of which are dedicated solely to the immunotherapy of cancer, lymphoma, and leukemia. These include treatments with specific protein probes that deliver immune cells or special cell-killing substances directly to tumor cells, to RNA vaccines against cancer, or the reactivation of dysfunctional immune cells.

Participation in clinical trials opens up the possibility of treatment with new drugs, some of which would otherwise only be available years later.
