Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Is this relevant for me or my loved one with cancer? 

If you or your loved one has been diagnosed with cancer, there may be clinical trial options worth exploring, depending on the cancer type, diagnosis stage, treatment history, and other medical factors. Some clinical trials are for people who are newly diagnosed, while others are for cancers that have returned, progressed, or stopped responding to current treatment. A short call with a patient navigator can help you understand what may be relevant now and what may be worth discussing with your care team. You do not need to decide anything during the call. 

What happens if I book a patient navigator call?  

You will speak with a navigator who will ask a few questions about your diagnosis, treatment history, and current situation, so we can understand what clinical trial options may be relevant to your situation. You do not need to have every medical detail ready to get started. After the call, we will explain what options may be worth exploring further and what next steps could look like. We will not contact any clinical trial team without your permission. 

Is this a commitment to join a clinical trial?

No, booking a call is not a commitment to join a clinical trial. Many patients and caregivers speak with a patient navigator simply to understand what cancer clinical trial options may exist and what taking part could involve. After the call, you can decide what, if anything, you want to do next. You stay in control of every next step.

What if my cancer has returned or treatment is no longer working?

That is one of the main reasons people start exploring clinical trials. Some cancer clinical trials are specifically designed for people whose cancer has returned, progressed, or stopped responding to current treatment. A patient navigator can help you understand whether there may be clinical trial options that fit your situation and what questions to raise with your care team. We are here to help you understand your options and possible next steps.

Can I explore clinical trials after surgery, radiotherapy or chemotherapy?

Yes, in many cases you can. Some cancer clinical trials are specifically for people who have already had treatment, while others are open to people who are newly diagnosed. Eligibility often depends on the type of treatment you have had, when you had it, and how your cancer has responded since then. The clinical trial team confirms final eligibility for any specific trial.

What if I am not eligible for a clinical trial?

That can happen, and it is common. Cancer clinical trials often have specific requirements based on cancer type, previous treatments, scan results, general health, and other medical factors. If you are not eligible for a clinical trial right now, your patient navigator can help you understand why and what may be worth watching for in the future. The clinical trial team always confirms final eligibility.

Do I need scan results, genetic or pathology reports to get started?

Not necessarily, but they can be helpful. Scan reports, pathology results, and details about previous treatment can make it easier to identify which clinical trials may be relevant to your situation. If you already have those documents, you can share them during or after the call. If you do not, you can still speak with a patient navigator to understand what information may be useful to gather.

What if clinical trial options are not available in my country?  

Clinical trial availability can vary by country. If a relevant trial is not running where you live, your patient navigator can help you understand whether cross-border options may be worth exploring and what that could involve. Availability, travel requirements, and next steps depend on the specific clinical trial. 

Will I need to travel for a cancer clinical trial? 

Sometimes, yes. Cancer clinical trials often take place at specialist hospitals, and joining a clinical trial may require in-person visits for tests, scans, or treatment. How much travel is needed depends on the specific clinical trial and where the trial sites are located. If you are interested in a specific option, the clinical trial team can confirm the visit schedule and any travel support that may be available. 

How quickly can I speak with a patient navigator?

In many cases, you can book a call soon after submitting the form. Available times may vary depending on your language and location, but you will be able to choose the earliest available slot that works for you. We know that some situations feel urgent and aim to make it easy to speak with someone without a long wait.

Is there any cost to speak with a patient navigator?

No, there is no cost to speak with a myTomorrows patient navigator. Our services are always free of charge for patients and physicians. The call is for information and guidance, so you can better understand what clinical trial options may be relevant and what next steps could look like. After the call, you can decide what feels right for you or your loved one. There is no pressure to move forward. 

More on clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests a new treatment or approach to see how safe it is and how well it works to treat a medical condition. Clinical trials follow strict rules and are reviewed by independent ethics committees to help protect participants. What’s involved can vary by trial, including clinic visits, tests, and how the treatment is given. If you’re exploring options for SMA, a navigator can help you understand what clinical trial options may be relevant and what joining a trial could involve. Joining a clinical trial is always voluntary. 

Why do families consider clinical trials for SMA?

Families consider SMA clinical trials for different reasons. Some want to learn about new treatment approaches — especially if they are wondering what other options may be available alongside their child's current care, or what comes next. Others value the regular check-ups and specialist follow-up that can come with joining a trial, or want to support research that may help other SMA families in the future. A patient navigator can help you understand what options may be relevant and what joining a trial could involve, so you can discuss it with your child's care team.

Are SMA clinical trials safe for children?

SMA clinical trials follow strict safety rules, but there can still be risks and side effects. Before a child can join a trial, the clinical trial team reviews medical information to check whether the trial is appropriate. During the clinical trial, children are monitored closely through regular visits and tests. Clinical trials are also reviewed by independent ethics committees to help protect participants. If you’re exploring options, a navigator can explain what safety monitoring often looks like and what questions to ask a clinical trial team. Joining a clinical trial is always your choice, and you can stop at any time.
