How to Find a Clinical Trial
Today, there are numerous resources to help find clinical trials. And with more clinical trials being conducted by independent, community-based physicians, there is a far greater chance that primary and specialty care physicians and nurses will be able to help find the right clinical trials. The goal when trying to find a clinical trial is to be as thorough and comprehensive as possible. Every piece of information that is found and every individual along the way could help in tracking down the right clinical trial.
The resources mentioned below can be helpful when trying to find a clinical trial. It can also be useful when family and friends help to find and narrow down options to a few targeted opportunities.
Once a research study is located, it is important to ask the study staff questions about the trial before making the decision to participate.

FAQs
While we try to keep searches as close to your original criteria as possible, the terms you’ve used may not be something that would appear in study records or trial listings, which tend to use more formal, clinical language. The word we use may just be a different term for the condition mentioned in your search form (ie: “Hypertension” as opposed to “High blood pressure”). A search on Centerwatch.com or ClinicalTrials.gov may have returned trials for conditions that are similar to or related to yours. If you ran a search for a symptom, rather than a health condition, you may receive trial results for conditions that display those symptoms. Do not mistake this for a diagnosis. You should always consult your doctor about your symptoms.
