Study Participants

Trial Benefits

Clinical trials that are well-designed and well-executed are the best approach for eligible participants to:

  • Play an active role in their own health care.
  • Gain access to new research treatments before they are widely available.
  • Obtain expert medical care at leading health care facilities during the trial.
  • Receive study-related visits, medical evaluations, and study drug at no cost.
  • Help others by contributing to medical research.

Patient FAQ

What is Clinical Research?

Clinical Study involves research using human volunteers that is intended to add to medical knowledge. In a clinical trial, participants receive interventions may be medical products, such as drugs or devices; procedures; or changes to participants’ behavior, for example, diet.

Clinical trials may compare a new medical approach to a standard one that is already available or to a placebo that contains no active ingredients or to no intervention. Some clinical trials compare interventions that are already available to each other.

Who Conducts Clinical Studies?

Every clinical study is led by a principal investigator, who is often a medical doctor. Clinical studies also have a research team that may include doctors, nurses, social workers, and other healthcare professionals.
