Whew! So glad you clarified that you don't mean "alternative therapy" but clinical trials or cutting edge mainstream medicine. But now I can't post my sarcastic answer that you need to go to a psychic in order to hear from patients who used alternative treatments since they are all dead.
The majority of us went thru cut, burn and poison but we are still here because of it. One thing about clinical trials is that they don't always work while radiation and chemo usually do.
Still it's always good to explore viable alternatives so here is a link to the NCI main clinical trial page which has info you may find helpful

Last but not least, it really sucks that eating right and living healthy don't protect you from getting cancer. You read all these articles about "cancer prevention diets" and then discover that it didn't prevent your cancer.
sorry you had to join our little club.
