Field notes
The homepage lays out a three-step workflow: collect diagnosis details, restructure registry eligibility criteria, and help users review the resulting options. It specifically mentions cancer-type databases, synonym handling for disease stages and biomarkers, and attempts to verify enrollment status and contact details. The site attributes its public trial data to ClinicalTrials.gov and identifies an oncology-trained nurse navigator role, while a displayed count of zero recruiting trials leaves the current search state unresolved.
