| Clinical trials take place before new research treatments can be made
available to the public for prescription or over-the-counter use. Many
currently available medical treatments have been analyzed through clinical
trials, which are carefully monitored under strict government regulations.
The Center for Digestive and Liver health strongly supports and participates
actively in such research endeavors. We are currently enrolling new
patients for the following trials:
- Crohn's Disease
- C-Diff Infection
NOTE: ALL PATIENTS MUST BE OVER THE AGE OF 18.
Most
clinical trials are sponsored by pharmaceutical companies, federal health
agencies, medical foundations, medical centers, and universities.
Most trials require periodic visits to the study physician and participation
is completely voluntary. People participate in clinical trials for various
reasons including:
- health
- financial
- personal needs and to
- help further advance medical science
