Clinical trials are tests that are used to help determine the effectiveness and safety of medical treatments. These medical treatments might be drugs, diagnostic equipment and procedures, medical devices and other therapies.

Not only will you be helping to treat a condition that affects thousands of other people, you will likely be helping yourself, too.
