A Robust Portfolio of Cancer Clinical Trials
More than 200 active clinical trials give eligible patients access to the latest advances in cancer treatment.
Adult Clinical Trials
For patients considering a clinical trial, the Froedtert & MCW Cancer Network offers studies across a broad range of cancer types and stages of disease.
Pediatric Clinical Trials
Children’s Wisconsin offers clinical trials through the MACC Fund Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders, giving eligible children and families access to new treatment options.
Physician Referrals
MCW Physician ACCESS (All Cancer Enrolling Studies) provides physicians with information about actively enrolling adult and pediatric cancer clinical trials for their patients.
A National Role in Cancer Clinical Research
As one of only 32 academic institutions nationwide selected by the National Cancer Institute as a Lead Academic Participating Site, the MCW Cancer Center plays a significant role in the National Clinical Trials Network. MCW investigators help develop and lead large-scale clinical trials, contribute scientific expertise to national research committees and collaborate with cancer researchers across the country, while expanding access to NCI-supported clinical trials for patients in Wisconsin through the Froedtert & MCW Cancer Network.

Translational Research Units
Clinical Research Support
Behind every clinical trial is a team of people and resources that help move a study from an idea to an active trial. The MCW Cancer Center provides investigators with support throughout that process, including protocol development, scientific review, study activation and trial management.
