Research and Clinical Trials

In recent years, Covenant has made it a priority to expand our cancer research program and clinical trial offerings. Covenant has partnered with Central Michigan University (CMU) to offer clinical trials for cancer patients. This will give Covenant patients increased access to clinical trials of new treatments and procedures. Covenant and CMU are committed to advancing cancer treatments through research.

Benefits of Clinical Trials

  • They offer patients a chance to benefit from the latest cutting-edge therapies
  • They contribute to the expanding knowledge base of medicine
  • They result in new innovations that lead to earlier diagnosis of illness, minimized side effects and better outcomes

Recent clinical trials conducted by Covenant involved new approaches to the diagnosis of breast cancer, a new radiotherapy treatment for liver tumors, and a new drug to treat women with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer.
