[Pharm-policy] DCP Cooperative Group Treatment Trials and Funding, 1993 to 1999

[James Love]

I just received this data today from the National Cancer Institution.

The data is for the costs of NIH's DCP Cooperative Group Treatment 
Trials, from 1993 to 1999.   The annual cost of the trials was 
$169,789 to $310,563 per year per trial.  The cost per patient (per
year) was $3,861 to $6,202.    Jamie
