What are clinical research studies?

Clinical research studies, also known as clinical trials, are conducted by doctors and researchers to see if new medical interventions are safe and effective before being approved for use for the public.

Some other benefits to participation are:

  • Active participation in your own health and healthcare
  • Access to new investigational drugs, medical devices and treatments
  • Access to healthcare providers who specialize in the condition being studied
  • Knowledge that you may be helping others with the condition, as well as yourself
