Clinical Trials

Regions Hospital offers many opportunities for people interested in participating in clinical trials. A clinical trial (also called clinical research) is a research study in human volunteers to answer specific health questions. Carefully conducted clinical trials are the fastest and safest way to find treatments that work and ways to improve health. Clinical trials determine whether experimental treatments or new ways of using known therapies are safe and effective under controlled environments.

Volunteers in clinical trials are helping others by contributing to medical research and advancements. Some participate in order to gain access to new research treatments and to play a more active role in their own health care.
