The Cost of Cancer Care in Clinical TrialsNCI has supported a number of studies that investigate the cost of patient care for patients enrolled in NCI-sponsored clinical trials compared to care received for comparable patients in standard community care. These data are essential to inform ongoing policy debates about the financial coverage by public and private health insurance plans of care received in cancer clinical trials. The following publications contain data on the cost of cancer care in clinical trials. To request copies of any of these publications send an e-mail message to kb36v@nih.gov. Please indicate which publication(s) you would like to receive and your name and mailing address. Updates and extensions of these studies will be posted as they become available.
