Participating in Clinical Trials
Risks and Benefits
Here are some possible benefits in joining a clinical trial.
-
Your participation may help others get a better treatment for their
disease in the future and allow researchers to learn more about how
diseases can be prevented, identified, or managed.
-
Researchers, doctors, and other health care professionals may check
your physical condition frequently, giving you regular, careful
medical attention, because they need data to make comparisons in a
trial.
-
It may be a way to get an experimental treatment for a life
threatening illness before it is approved and widely
available.
