Clinical trials can save lives from cancer. But not everyone can access them. Congress has an opportunity to change this with a new bill. Help us spread the word so more people understand why #ClinicalTrials matter and why we need Congress to pass this legislation.
METAvivor is devastated to report the death of Amy Beumer, former board member, from metastatic breast cancer. We will miss her brilliance, wit, and friendship. In Amy's honor, we remain committed to ending deaths from MBC. Our condolences to her family and loved ones.
