Clinical Trials

At Mission, we strive to be the best. With a wide variety of cancer treatments available, we never stop looking for ways to beat cancer and keep it from coming back.

We’ve been able to diagnose cancers earlier and provide better outcomes and survival for our patients using our world-class clinical trials program.  We partner with both the Iowa-Wide Oncology Research Association / I-WORC N-CORP, the Des Moines Oncology Research Association (DORA), and Mercy Cancer Research to offer our patients more than 50 national and international research studies and clinical trials right here in central Iowa. Before you even ask, our medical professionals screen each one of our patients to see if a clinical trial would benefit their specific diagnosis.
