Grand Rapids CCOP

The Grand Rapids Clinical Oncology Program (GRCOP) is a community cancer research and education program offering national cancer prevention and treatment clinical trials for people who are at risk for developing cancer or who have been diagnosed with cancer. GRCOP is comprised of over 300 Northern Lower and West Michigan member physicians in over 38 counties. GRCOP initially formed to develop community cancer patient management guidelines.

In 1983, GRCOP changed its focus to become one of the first participants in the NCI Community Clinical Oncology Program, offering national clinical trials through a community-based clinical research program. GRCOP offers local access to, and data management support for, over 150 cancer research studies. GRCOP works with local hospitals and cancer organizations in providing the highest quality care for cancer prevention and treatment. GRCOP continues to provide access to the latest cancer research both nationally and locally.
