    Healthy males are being sought for Breast Cancer research

    Healthy males are being sought for Breast Cancer research


    New Zealand Clinical Research is putting put out the call for men in Auckland and Christchurch to be part of two large trials.

    One trial is investigating a potential new medication, while the other is looking at a new way of giving the medicine.

    Principal Investigator and Oncologist, Dr Chris Wynne says the trials use male volunteers, as they're unlikely to ever need the drug.

    He says it's also a chance for men, who might've had a family member affected by breast cancer, to give back.
