Virtual Trial

Most of you are probably already aware of the valuable Virtualtrials.com website created by Al Musella.   That site got its name from the Virtual Trial, which tracks the outcomes of patients who are trying many different experimental therapies beyond the standard-of-care.  The way to gain access this de-identified database is to join the virtual trial oneself.

"The Brain Tumor Virtual TrialTM is a new concept in collecting and analyzing outcomes data for brain tumor patients. We collect information from brain tumor patients - or their friends / family, over the internet. Participants are not told what treatments to do - we just record and analyze the outcomes of the treatments you and your doctors decide to try. The idea is to enable us to quickly identify which treatments or combinations of treatments look the most promising. We will then perform a traditional multi-center study on the best combinations of treatments."
