General Clinical Trial Information
Most diseases do not have a single treatment. Some patients
may choose to enhance their treatments with new or innovative
techniques currently under investigation.
Clinical trials involve the participation of people in medical
research. Most medical research begins in a laboratory with
studies in test tubes and on animals. Treatments that show
potential may then be tried on humans. The only way to know
if a treatment is safe and effective is to try it on patients
in a clinical trial.
Clinical trials are supported at many organizations such
as medical centers, hospitals, universities and physicians'
offices. The researcher will most likely be a doctor, academic
researcher or specialist. The researchers compare the effect
of the new treatment with standard treatment. Patient receiving
the clinical treatment are in a treatment group, whereas
patients receiving standard treatment or no treatment are
in a "control" group. Researchers assign patients
randomly to either a treatment or control group. If you
are in a clinical trial and do not know whether you are
in the treatment group or the control group, this is known
as a masked study. If neither you nor your doctor know if
you are in the treatment group or the control group, this
is known as a double masked study. A double masked study
helps ensure that the perception of either you or your doctor
will not affect the study.
Each clinical
trial study has specific eligibility requirements such as
type and stage of disease, age group, or patient history.
If you are interested in joining a clinical trial your doctor
must contact one of the trials investigators and provide
details about your medical history. The National Institutes
of Health and other organizations sponsor trials on various
diseases and disorders. You can search available clinical
