The WiTT Group recently introduced its new Support Registry™ at , which empowers cancer patients to get the support they need, by making it easy to ask for and receive help.

Commenting on the partnership, Jon Friedenberg, CEO of Mary Crowley Cancer Research said,“Partnering with The WiTT Group will enable our patients to get the help they need by having access to a Support Registry platform that can ease the non-clinical challenges they face as they go through treatment. Additionally, the WiTT platform will assist us in our efforts to reach more patients from diverse communities who are often unaware, or don't believe they are eligible for clinical trials that could impact their lives. Our goal is to reduce inequity and increase access to cancer trials, and we believe this partnership will help us to do that. Increasing the diversity of the patients participating in our clinical trials is not only the right thing to do but also increases the scientific value of our research.”
Rahul Mahadevan, CEO and Founder of The WiTT Group said,“We started WiTT to make it easy for patients to ask for, and receive, the help they need as they go through treatment. Since our launch three months ago, we have helped over 180 cancer patients get non-clinical support they need as they go through treatment. While our focus remains on helping patients with their non-clinical needs, we know that patients are often unaware of trials that might be available to them.
We are very proud to partner with Mary Crowley Cancer Research which has been at forefront of developing and connecting patients to the most innovative and promising clinical trials. This partnership allows us to make patients aware of genomic sequencing and clinical trials that might be available to them by connecting them with the team at Mary Crowley Cancer Research.”
