Clinical trials

0 Recommendations

Hello,

I'm writing today to let you know about some new features we're introducing related to clinical trials. Many of you are familiar with clinical trials, and some of you have participated in a trial or know someone who has. If you want to learn more about clinical trials, Lung Cancer Alliance has compiled helpful information here www.lungcanceralliance.org/facing/ct_what.html. An additional resource is CISCRP (www.ciscrp.org), a non-profit organization focused on educating and informing the public about clinical research participation.

This community was founded with the promise that you are in control of your own privacy. We will never provide personal information about you to another party without your express permission.

What's new is that from time to time we'll tell you about clinical trials in which you may be interested in participating. If you're not interested in participating, simply do nothing. If you do think you might be interested, we'll provide a link where you'll be able to read about a trial, decide if you are interested in participating, and fill out a short survey to see if you may qualify. If it appears that you may qualify, we'll put you in touch with the physicians conducting the trial so that you can learn more and find out if you do qualify.

We will continue to add more features to make this community helpful to you, and as always, we'd love to hear your thoughts. And as always we hope you'll share Inspire with your friends and family members who are not yet members but may be interested in joining.

Thank you for your time and for being part of this community.

I agree with Anita. Thank you for this resource. Babs

Brian,
Thank you so much. I have participated in 2 trials. I'm glad we will have this resource.

Brian, what a wonderful service you have introduced regarding the clinical trials. My husband passed away in January, but when we were looking into clinical trials, it became overwhelming at times. This will truly help the process. Good work.

Brain, this is a great service. I'm currently in a clinical trial and may be interested in others.
