"Without KidneyCAN, without advocates going to the hill, sitting in front of politicians and telling their stories -- there would not have been any funding for kidney cancer."
- Dr. @HHammersMD, UTSW

Caregivers play an essential role in the #KidneyCancer journey, but the challenges they face aren't always visible.

On November 12, join the Judy Nicholson Kidney Cancer Foundation for Behind the Care: Real Stories, Real Challenges, Real Support, a FREE virtual conversation focused on the experiences of kidney cancer caregivers.

Hear from caregivers as they share their personal stories, the challenges they've faced, and what has helped them along the way. Moderated by Kathy Russell, this conversation is an opportunity to learn from others who understand the realities of caregiving and find connection and support.

Not all clinical trials use placebos, and when they do, there are safeguards in place to protect participants. Patients are informed about the possibility of receiving a placebo before deciding whether to enroll.

Interested in learning more? The KidneyCAN Clinical Trial Navigator can help you find potentially relevant #KidneyCancer clinical trials to discuss with your healthcare team.
