For Patients

A clinical research trial is overseen by an expert medical team that tests a study drug or medical device on volunteers taking part in the study. These tests are done to see whether the study drug or device is both effective and safe for people to use. Every clinical trial adheres to a protocol, which establishes the rules the study must follow. It provides details on the trial's maximum patient enrollment, the testing and procedure schedule, and the study's duration. All clinical research trials adhere to strict rules and guidelines, which are set by the Food and Drug Administration.

Each volunteer is provided with an informed consent document to help them make an educated decision about taking part in a clinical research study. FDA mandates that all individuals be informed of the conditions of a clinical research trial. The informed consent will contain the following information:

• The objective of the clinical trial
• The expected duration of the study and the expected number of volunteers
• A description of all the tests and procedures related to the study
• A schedule of events that will take place over the course of the study
• The subjects’ responsibilities and prohibitions throughout their participation in the study trial
• An explanation of the benefits, dangers, or potential discomforts that might be experienced during the study trial
• Details on the experimental treatments
• Information about participant compensation
• Other treatments that a volunteer may want to consider before participating in a study
• The privacy of all volunteers
• Each participant’s right to withdraw from the study at any time
• Potential advantages that a volunteer may get for participating in a clinical experiment

Clinical research trials are conducted to determine whether novel study treatments are safe and effective against certain diseases. Investigational products are evaluated to see how they compare to approved medicines, or to promote treatments that are not easily accessible on the market. Some clinical trials require that the volunteer, study personnel, and doctor be unaware of whether they are receiving the study medicine or a placebo (an inactive substance), meaning some participants won't receive treatment throughout the clinical trial.

It's possible for clinical research trials to cause adverse reactions that might result in discomforting side effects. Because the treatments being studied are new, the medical personnel and doctors do not always know their potential side effects. Most adverse effects are temporary and go away after medication is stopped, while some side effects could manifest after the course of treatment. All risks depend on the type of treatment used in the study, and the researchers should explain to you any known dangers or discomforts.

All clinical research studies adhere to guidelines that provide inclusion and exclusion criteria to determine the eligibility of volunteers to take part in the study. Factors include age, medical history, current treatments, and current medical issues. This standard is used to select suitable participants and to ensure their safety throughout the study.

• Epilepsy
• Alzheimer’s Disease
• Memory Loss
• Multiple Sclerosis
• Stroke With Spasticity
• Parkinson’s Disease

A placebo is regarded as an inactive drug used in clinical research investigations. In other words, the placebo won't provide any treatment or benefit. To assess the efficacy of a treatment in research, experimental treatments are frequently compared to a placebo.

Most clinical research studies pay participants for their time and travel expenses. This information is outlined in the Informed Consent Document that you will receive at your initial visit Payments are made following the completion of each study visit.

Yes. Every volunteer has the right to discontinue the clinical research they are taking part in at any moment. If you choose to withdraw, you must inform the research team of your decision to stop participating. A follow-up visit will need to be scheduled before discontinuing the study.

Most studies don't charge individuals for their participation. This information will be supplied to you in the Informed Consent Document that you will receive on your initial visit.
