November 18, 2025- For individuals diagnosed with cancer, participation in a clinical trial offers the opportunity to explore new treatment options; however, for many, finding and navigating the right clinical trial can be challenging due to various barriers in the process. To address these issues, the American Cancer Society has announced the national expansion of ACS ACTS (Access to Clinical Trials and Support), a comprehensive clinical trial matching service built to increase equitable access to clinical trials.
The program offers trained American Cancer Society cancer information specialists to help caregivers, people with cancer, and health care providers learn how clinical trials may fit into a treatment journey, explore personalized clinical trial options tailored to specific needs, and easily access American Cancer Society services and resources to overcome participation barriers.
