Overview
Seattle Cancer Care Alliance provides comprehensive, leading-edge treatment for people diagnosed with kidney cancer. Every year some 30,000 people in the United States--mainly adults between the age of 50 and 70--are diagnosed with this disease. SCCA was formed, in part, to bring promising new treatments to patients faster. This means that people who have kidney cancer will find more treatment options at SCCA than might be found elsewhere, including participation in one of the clinical trials conducted at SCCA and its parent organizations, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and UW Medicine.
