US EditionWhat to Know Before Enrolling in a Clinical Trial
- Inflammatory bowel disease , which encompasses Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, impacts approximately 1% of the U.S. Population and leads to symptoms such as diarrhea and abdominal pain.
- There is no cure for IBD, and no single test can confirm it, which motivates ongoing clinical trials to find improved prevention, detection, and treatment methods.
- Clinical trials follow strict protocols reviewed by a research coordinator who assesses your medical history to determine eligibility, and may provide access to study drugs as treatment.
- Most clinical trials receive federal or private funding, so participants usually do not pay any fees; however, they might encounter costs related to transportation, meals, lodging, arranging for dependents, or taking leave from their jobs. Participants have the freedom to leave the study at any time for any reason.
- Interested individuals should consult trusted sources like the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation, discuss opportunities with doctors, and contact research coordinators to learn more and determine eligibility.
