📢 EU-X-CT Recommendations – Your Feedback Matters!
Clinical trials are essential in advancing sarcoma treatment, yet many patients face barriers to participating in trials across borders. The EU-X-CT initiative has developed draft recommendations aimed at improving safe and equitable access to cross-border clinical trials within Europe.

✅ Developed with input from over 100 experts across 32 countries
✅ Addresses key challenges in clinical trial management and access
Now open for public consultation to incorporate all stakeholder perspectives

We invite you to review the draft and provide your feedback! Your insights will help shape the final recommendations and ensure that cross-border participation becomes a real option for all eligible patients.

Borders should no longer be barriers in clinical trials.
