What Questions Are Good For Me To Ask When Considering Joining A Clinical Trial?
I have a meeting on Feb 10 with my spouse to discuss the possibility of my joining a clinical trial for a new medication targeting Group 2 PH patients. All I know about the medication is that it is based on one hormone; I don't know which one yet. I am going to be very cautious before making any commitment to do so and plan on going into the meeting armed with questions.
Heather10 you and I are in group 2, so my prayers are for some good results! I fine myself at a total loss of questions, but I am confident that you will ask all necessary? Keep us informed as I know you will!
Heather…..I know you’ll do your homework before getting involved in any study or anything unknown. You are very very wise……so I know you’ll do your homework before joining. Are there any risk involved & will the study affect how you will feel on a daily basis????? Good Luck!!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Heather, if the trial is through an NIH grant, the government just halted them.
Down to the basics: is it a double blind trial? With those neither the doctor or you will know if you are getting the drug being tested or the placebo. I was on a trial for a drug for rheumatoid arthritis. It already had been on a double blind trial. I was taking the real pill, which was already on the market. The stage I was on was to verify the percentage of people who had the expected results, and the secondary effects. Since I had no benefits and some secondary effects, I'm in the control group now, not taking the drug.
Thank you Heather for the info
Anyone Involved In Any Of The Trials On This. The Closest Place To Me Doing Trials Is Bostion. Nothing Else Close.
