Australian Cancer Trials provides a database of research trials
that are currently being carried out in Australia to find better
ways of treating cancer. Some of these trials may offer treatment
options that would not otherwise be available to you, your friends

trials. It offers people affected by cancer a 'Plain English'
guide, which is comprehensive, accurate and brought up to date on a
weekly basis.
