Georgia Cancer Specialists in Macon Helping to Beat Cancer

They’ve completed two breast cancer prevention trials, one of which, led to the FDA approval of the drug Roloxaphin. A medical oncologist with the Georgia Cancer Specialists in Macon, Dr. Cheryl Jones, says if more patients are willing to participate in trials, more people are likely to live cancer free.

One of Jones’ patients, Christine Dwight, remembers when she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
