Participating in Clinical Trials

Informed Consent

Before you can enroll in a clinical trial, the research team must tell you what to expect during a trial and what might happen unexpectedly. The informed consent document outlines all this information.

If you agree to take part in a trial after you learn about the potential risks, benefits, and your rights and responsibilities, you sign the informed consent document. However, this document is not a contract. You can leave the trial at any time for any reason.
