What are Clinical Trials?

What are Clinical Trials?

Clinical trials are medical studies developed to provide data for new and existing treatment methods. Using statistical proof, clinical trials are conducted to determine if a new treatment is safe and effective.

Depending on the type of study and what is being examined, studies can last several months or several years. Clinical trials typically involve people with a specific medical condition looking for better treatments or new ways to manage their illness.

Types of Clinical Trials

Treatment

Treatment research concentrates on intervention, usually through medication, surgery, medical appliances, or therapy. Treatment-focused trials aim to look for solutions to specific problems.

Prevention

The medical community will always prioritize prevention whenever possible, and prevention research checks the different preventative processes available to potentially benefit our health.

Screening

These clinical trials focus on identifying specific health conditions and disorders through screening.

Genetic Studies

Genetic studies evaluate how we can predict disorders based on our genes' relation to potential illnesses.

Quality of Life

People struggling with chronic illnesses can benefit from quality-of-life research that focuses on long-term care and daily health.

How much can you get paid for clinical trials in Tampa Florida?

The amount of payment often has to do with the phase of the trial. Phase 1 trials, for example, pay more because the treatments being studied are less well-understood compared to those in Phase IV trials, which offer the lowest average compensation.

Volunteering for clinical trials is an excellent way to develop treatments that will someday improve or even save lives.

Santos Research Center's Paid Clinical Trials

Clinical research participants undergo a thorough evaluation by study specialists and are closely followed by our medical staff.

All enrolling studies have been conducted on humans and found to be safe before potential participants become involved. We don't charge the participant as the cost of medical research is paid for by the sponsors of the research program.

Alzheimer's Disease

We're all in this fight together! Finding a treatment that combats memory loss early could help us envision a future without Alzheimer's disease.

Traumatic Brain Injury

A mild traumatic brain injury can temporarily affect brain neurons, while more severe ones can cause complicated long-term physical damage to the brain.

A TBI can have wide-ranging physical and psychological effects. Some symptoms may appear immediately, while others may appear days or weeks later.

Different Phases of Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are designed to assess and test new interventions such as psychotherapy or medications. Clinical trials are often conducted in 4 phases.

Phase I

Researchers test an experimental study drug or treatment within a small group of people for the first time to evaluate safety, dosage, and side effects.

Phase II

The experimental drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to determine efficacy and further assess safety.

Phase III

The experimental drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm efficacy, track side effects, compare treatments, and collect safety information.

Phase IV

Post-marketing studies are performed after FDA approval to provide additional information about risks, advantages, and best use.

Clinical study placebo

Placebo

A placebo is an inactive substance that looks and tastes like the drug on trial but has no effect on the disease. A placebo is also called a sugar pill or dummy.

A placebo-controlled trial has two or more groups. One group gets the active treatment while the other gets the placebo, allowing researchers to compare outcomes.

Placebos are an important part of clinical studies because they provide researchers with a comparison point for new therapies.

Informed Consent

Informed consent provides participants with important information about the clinical trial, including what procedures they will undergo and possible risks and benefits.

If you decide to participate after this discussion and review, you will be asked to sign the document and be given a copy. Informed consent continues throughout the trial as you receive newly obtained safety or trial-related information.
