CTEP Clinical Investigations Branch (CIB)
About CIB
Margaret Mooney is CTEP's AD and Clinical Investigations Branch Chief.
CTEP's Clinical Investigations Branch is responsible for the scientific coordination and oversight of definitive, practice-changing clinical trials of innovative oncology treatments and advanced imaging.
These multi-center studies complement, rather than duplicate, research conducted by the private sector, including radiotherapy, surgery, and multimodality treatment trials, de-escalation trials evaluating whether less treatment can produce disease outcomes that are not worse than more treatment, trials in rare cancers, and trials in children, adolescents, and young adults.
CIB has primary oversight of three CTEP-supported clinical trials networks:
