Medical College of Wisconsin Radiation Oncology ROCKET Program
What is the ROCKET Program?
Radiation Oncology Committee to Advance Knowledge and Education Through Clinical Trials
ROCKET develops and supports innovative early phase radiation clinical trials. The goal is to provide pilot data for extramural funding, develop therapies for NCI’s National Clinical Trials Network (NCTN) or other multisite trials, and test novel treatment approaches to establish new standards of care and improve outcomes for cancer patients.
ROCKET supports the mission of the Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin Cancer Network through the demonstration of national scientific leadership while providing meaningful contributions to the Cancer Center.
