A Clinical Trial That Changed My Life: One Participant's Story
Jan White is a 75-year-old retired Nurse living in Auckland, who used to work in health, disability, and aged care. Since she can remember, Jan has been having 2-yearly mammograms, and like any other appointment, she went in asymptomatic, and expecting the ‘all clear’.
However, the mammogram displayed a lump in her breast, and she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Jan is a participant in the EXPERT clinical trial, which aims to improve the personalised use of radiation therapy in early breast cancer patients.
We spoke with Jan about her diagnosis and her decision to participate in a clinical trial.
