What are the benefits of participating in a clinical trial?
Participants may gain access to new treatments before they become widely available, receive close medical monitoring, and contribute to medical advancements that may benefit future generations. Some studies also provide compensation for time and travel.
Will I be compensated for participating?
Compensation varies by study and may include reimbursement for time, travel, and participation. Our team will discuss specific details with you before enrollment.
Can I leave a clinical trial if I change my mind?

How long do clinical trials last?
The duration of a clinical trial varies depending on the study type. Some trials last a few weeks, while others may continue for several months or years. Before enrolling, you will receive detailed information about the time commitment required.
What happens during a clinical trial?
Each study is different, but most include an initial screening process, informed consent, baseline testing, treatment administration, and follow-up visits to monitor your health and response to the treatment.
What is informed consent?
Informed consent is the process of providing potential participants with all necessary information about the study, including risks, benefits, procedures, and their rights. Before enrolling, participants must review and sign a consent form indicating their understanding and willingness to participate.
What happens after the trial ends?
After the study ends, researchers analyze the data to determine the effectiveness and safety of the treatment. Participants may receive follow-up information regarding the results and next steps, depending on the study.
Can I continue the treatment after the trial ends?
In some cases, participants may have the option to continue receiving the treatment if it proves beneficial. However, this depends on the study design, regulatory approval, and sponsor policies.
Will my personal information be kept confidential?
Yes, all personal and medical information collected during the study is kept confidential and protected by privacy laws and ethical guidelines. Your information will only be shared with authorized research personnel as required for the study.
How do I know if a clinical trial is right for me?
