Clinical trials for children and adolescents are done at Sparrow Health System and Michigan State University in cooperation with the Children's Oncology Group/CureSearch (COG). This cooperative group includes all pediatric oncologists in the United States and in several foreign countries. Most clinical trials are open to individuals from birth to age 21 years who meet disease and study specific eligibility criteria. Some COG clinical trials are more age specific or include individuals up to the age of 26 years or 30 years (for example, brain tumors and bone tumors).
The list of COG clinical trials frequently changes. For up-to-date information or to discuss the specifics of a clinical trial, please contact one of the pediatric oncologists, Renuka Gera, MD, Roshni Kulkarni, MD, Elna Saah, MD, or Ajovi Scott-Emuakpor, MD, PhD.
