Center for Clinical Trials Education
Every advance in the understanding of a disease such as lupus -- its causes, its effects on the body, the development of new drugs and treatments -- is based on research.
The Center for Clinical Trials Education provides:
- a comprehensive search tool for clinical trial information
- points to consider before participating in a clinical trial
- a guide to clinical research terms
- the latest news on lupus and clinical research
- resources for additional information and support
According to CenterWatch, 94% of people recognize the importance of participating in clinical research in order to assist in the advancement of medical science. Yet 75% of the general public state that they have little to no knowledge about the clinical research enterprise and the participation process.
