National Hepatitis C Program | ![](images/global/clr_pxl.gif) | Clinical Trials![](images/global/clr_pxl.gif) | A clinical trial is a research program that tests a new medicine to see if it is safe and works well before it is approved for widespread use.
To find a clinical trial: ClinicalTrials.gov provides regularly updated information about federally and privately supported clinical research in human volunteers. The site gives information about a trial's purpose, who may participate, locations, and phone numbers for more details. |
If you are not sure if joining a clinical trial is a good idea for you, the information in this program may help you decide.
