Cystic fibrosis clinical study patients show less lung function decline

"Given that there may be potential benefits to study participation, CF clinicians need to ensure adequate opportunities for participation in studies for all eligible subjects," said Dr. Goss.

He added that the persons most likely to participate in the study were those without a high school education who worked full-time.

According to the authors, this CF study was the first to compare clinical trial participants against a majority in a disease category within a specific country.
