Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to participate in a clinical trial?
Being part of a clinical trial may have risks, but it may also have benefits. Clinical trials are carefully designed, reviewed and completed, and are evaluated by an institutional review (IRB) board before they begin. The role of an IRB is to make sure that the study is ethical and that the rights and welfare of participants are protected.
Who can participate in a clinical trial?
Clinical studies have standards outlining who can participate. These standards are called eligibility criteria and are based on characteristics such as age, gender, the type and stage of a disease, previous treatment history, and other medical conditions. If you are eligible for a clinical trial you will be given information that will help you decide whether or not to participate.
How can I learn more about clinical trials?
