ALLIANCE RESEARCH IN SPOTLIGHT
2021 ASH MEETING DECEMBER 11-14
The Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology and Alliance Foundation Trials, LLC presented an array of novel data from many of its hematology studies during the 63rd American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition December 11-14 in Atlanta, GA. Many of these data will help change the delivery of hematologic cancer care or help elucidate the underlying cause and effect relationships seen in this field.
Here's a snapshot of Alliance and AFT abstracts.
