What to Know Before Enrolling in a Clinical Trial

  • Inflammatory bowel disease , which includes Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, impacts approximately one percent of the U.S. Population and leads to symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, and fatigue.
  • There is currently no cure for IBD, prompting the need for clinical trials to discover new prevention, detection, or treatment methods despite challenges caused by limited participation.
  • Clinical trials follow strict protocols to protect participant health, involve reviewing medical history for eligibility, and often provide access to study drugs as a treatment option.
  • Participants typically bear no costs in clinical trials, though expenses like travel, gas, parking, child care, and work absence may arise but are commonly covered by trial sponsors.
  • Interested individuals should consult trusted sources like the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation, discuss trial opportunities with their doctors, contact research coordinators, and learn more online before enrolling.
