[Clinical research in radiotherapy oncology in private sector: A reality with a possible future?]

Clinical research is one of the activities of medical practice, particularly in oncology including radiotherapy. It was developed in the public sector and then in the liberal sector, in compliance with regulatory institutions, resulting in a doubling of inclusions over the last decade. Setting up and developing clinical research in the liberal sector are major axes in terms of interests: improving the proposition of care, access to innovation, to keep patients, intellectual stimulation, encouraging recruitment, activity of scientific publications, financial valorisation, quality of visibility… An inventory on French national territory via the national union of iadiotherapists oncologists (SNRO) and the club of liberal oncologists (Colib) is reported in this article, as well as examples of structuring and organization.
