Georgia CORE has developed a partnership with Emory Winship Cancer Institute to give patients across the state access to Investigator-Initiated trials. Participating Georgia CORE Research Network members in community practices now have access to these Investigator-Initiated studies through Georgia CORE.With the help of an educational grant from the Susan G. Komen for the Cure, Ruth O’Regan, MD and Amelia Zelnak, MD created a video stream that explains the most recent breast cancer studies offered through Georgia CORE:
Randomized Phase II Trial of Sequential Docetaxel followed by Capecitabine versus Concomitant Docetaxel/Capecitabine as Induction Therapy for Early Stage Breast Cancer
Phase II Neoadjuvant Trial of Trastuzumab in Combination with Dose-Dense ABI-007 (Abraxane) Followed by Vinorelbine for HER2 Overexpressing Early Stage Breast Cancer
