Leveraging SCRI’s Personalised Medicine Programme, Mirati and SCRI will use clinical trial matching data to know obstacles in trial participation in a better way and eventually develop protocols to resolve challenges.

Data from American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) revealed that around 85% of cancer patients are treated in community centres.

Mirati Therapeutics chief medical officer Alan Sandler said: “By focusing on community-based sites, we can better understand the health needs of patients living with cancer and provide more tailored, patient-centered care.

“This partnership will allow us to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges patients face to enable us to better design our clinical studies to be representative of all patient communities.”
