What this site is not: a diagnosis, a treatment recommendation, or a promise that any investigational treatment works.
Last updated: September 5, 2026
This is not medical advice
Everything on this website is general information about clinical research and about the conditions we study. It is not medical advice, it is not a diagnosis, and it is not tailored to anyone’s situation. Talk to your own doctor before making any decision about your care.
Never delay seeking medical advice, or stop or change a treatment your doctor prescribed, because of something you read here. If you think you may be having a medical emergency, call 911.
Investigational means investigational
The studies we conduct test investigational treatments. That word is precise: it means the treatment is still being studied and has not been approved by the FDA for the use being tested. Nothing on this site should be read as a claim that any investigational treatment is safe, effective, or better than what you are taking now. Whether it is, is the question the study exists to answer.
No promise of benefit
Taking part in a study may or may not help you. Some participants improve, some do not, and some experience side effects. The known and possible risks for a particular study are set out in that study’s informed consent document, which you read and discuss before deciding anything.
No guarantee of eligibility
Completing the pre-screening form does not mean you qualify for a study. Eligibility is decided against a specific protocol, after screening, by the study team. Studies also open and close throughout the year, so a study described here may not be recruiting when you read this.
Cost, and the words we use
Study-related visits, procedures and investigational product are provided at no cost to participants, and compensation for time and travel may be available. This does not cover your regular medical care, which continues to be billed normally.
Individual experiences
Any participant experience described on this site is one person’s account. It is not a prediction of what will happen to anyone else and it is not evidence of effectiveness.
Third-party content
Where we link to other organizations, we do so because the information may be useful. We do not control it and we do not endorse everything on those sites.
