Find a clinical trial
A clinical trial is a research study that people can join. Some test a new treatment. Some test a new way to use a treatment we already have. Joining one is always your choice.
How to think about a clinical trial covers what taking part involves, when to ask, and what the phases mean.
Talk to your care team before you contact a trial. They know your history and can tell you whether a trial is worth your time. Nothing on this page is medical advice, and we are not part of any trial.
