There are several posts on this issue listed here:
https://www.agingcare.com/search.aspx?searchterm=senior+transportation
Also, check with:
1. Local public transit company to learn if they have small destination specific buses.
2. Local senior center.
3. Infusion center or hospital social worker.
4. Gilda's Club to see if they know of any resources.
The article Maggie references is also a good resource; I was unaware that this service existed.
Good luck in finding what you need.

It is my understanding that The American Cancer Society has a volunteer program for rides to treatments.
