Linnea Olsen, along with many other long-term ALK-positive lung cancer survivors, participated in clinical trials at several junctures in treatment. Linnea participated in a trial of Crizotinib, the first treatment for ALK-positive lung cancer. She joined 5 more clinical trials over the course of her illness. By enrolling in clinical trials, she was able to get advanced treatments before they were approved for general medical use.
