Background

Oncology Advanced Practitioners (APs), including NPs, CNSs, PAs, and PharmDs, are instrumental in providing quality cancer care.

Clinical research is an integral aspect of oncology care, yet there is limited published data regarding oncology APs’ practice and educational needs related to cancer clinical trials.

Access more clinical research and trials content in the 2020-21 ACCC President’s Theme, Community Oncology Can Close the Gap in Cancer Research.
