Research Basics:
-
Research participants are part of an
international effort to find safe, effective treatments for conditions that
impact their quality of life. Participants may also receive
study-related medical evaluations at no cost, and may have other benefits
specific to the study, which will be explained in the study's consent form.
-
Each participant in a research study is informed
of the study procedures, potential risks and any expected benefits of the
study. At your first study visit, the research team will take time to
review this information with you and give you the tools you need to make the
decision that's right for you.
-
It's important to understand that research
studies do not replace your regular medical care. When you come for a
study visit, you will be asked about any medical experiences you have had
since your last visit and any medicines you have taken.
We are actively recruiting for the following
trials:
