What are clinical studies?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Clinical studies are scientific research studies on human volunteers performed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of new drugs before they are submitted to the FDA for approval. By performing clinical studies with human volunteers, research physicians find new and better ways to prevent and diagnose medical problems.<\/p>\n

Typically, volunteers receive the drug under consideration, and biological samples such as blood or urine are collected at carefully prescribed and monitored times. It is very important to control the environment in order to achieve accurate results. Most studies involve periods in which volunteers stay in our facility from a few hours to several days.<\/p>\n

Volunteers are compensated for their time while participating in our studies. Compensation depends on the complexity and duration of the study and is subject to state and federal taxes.<\/p>\n
