Patient Participation

Inducing a different perspective on research


Cancer can only be understood and ultimately conquered when we collaborate with a whole range of stakeholders. Of all collaboration partners, patients are by far the most important, valuable and close to our hearts.

Patient Collaboration in clinical studies
Around 25% of our patients are engaged in a clinical study. Without their commitment, there would be no cancer research.

Patient Participation Program
The world of the researcher in the lab and that of the patient are often miles apart. We aim to encourage researchers and patients to discover and understand each other’s worlds. This is why we take part in the Oncode Institute Patient Perspective Program. This program provides a support structure that enables researchers and patients or former patients to connect and interact. Within the Netherlands Cancer Institute, five Oncode-labs are involved in this program (Van Rheenen, De Visser, Akkari,  Zwart and Vermeulen).

 

Patient Council

The Patient Council promotes the interests of all patients who are in care of our hospital, the Antoni van Leeuwenhoek hospital.  The Patient Council proactively thinks along  with the Board of Directors and functions as an advisory council.
