About Clinical Trials

Do you have questions about participating in a clinical trial? Here are some of the questions people frequently ask.

What are clinical research trials?

Clinical research trials help scientists and doctors explore whether a medical strategy, device, or therapy is safe and effective to use in people. Before any therapy can be approved and made available to the public, it must go through several phases of clinical research.

What is informed consent?

Before enrolling in a clinical trial, you must sign an Informed Consent Form (ICF). The ICF contains written information about the study, including its goals, how long it will last, benefits and risks, and the tests and procedures you will receive.

What does study participation involve?

Study participation usually involves visiting a clinic regularly, taking or receiving an investigational drug, and undergoing tests and procedures to monitor your health. You can still see your regular doctor, but you should let them know you are participating in a study.
