SGCMH Research Programs/Clinical Trials

Ste. Genevieve County Memorial Hospital, Missouri Baptist Hospital and Heartland Cancer Research CCOP are working together to make top quality cancer care available to patients who live in rural communities. Together they are dedicated to reducing the incidence and subsequent mortality of cancer through a research program called the Community Clinical Oncology Program (CCOP).

Ste. Genevieve County Memorial Hospital has been a member of the program for many years and has been deemed “the smallest cancer research facility in the country.”

The CCOP program has a solid foundation and has dramatically improved access of cancer patients to NCI-sponsored clinical trials of innovative new cancer therapies, cancer preventive strategies, and interventions to reduce the symptoms associated with cancer.
