Clinical trial participants fare no better, no worse than other patients

rmation and Study on Clinical Research Participation and Opinion Dynamics Corporation, two-thirds of Americans believe that clinical research studies are "very safe" or "somewhat safe." More than half of respondents also said they would have greater trust in clinical research information if the results were disclosed on a public Web site.

"The primary reason people participate in clinical trials is to gain access to new therapies that may offer treatment where none exists currently, or that offers benefits over currently available treatments," says CISCRP chairman Ken Getz. "Another top reason people participate is to help advance medical knowledge. . . . They participate because they feel doing so may have an impact on other people's lives."
