Before the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) can approve a new drug or treatment it must be shown to be both safe and effective. Companies use clinical trials to collect pharmaceutical information to prove the effectiveness of their drug to the FDA. Patients are carefully monitored; frequent medical exams and tests are performed to assure their safety. These trials can be an avenue for many to receive not just experimental medications but also much needed medications already approved and on the market currently. The duration of the clinical trial will vary from course to course and often will include patient care, laboratory testing and medications free of charge to the enrollees. Our practice is involved with new and exciting protocols. A protocol is a written plan detailing exactly how the trial will be conducted, what information will be gathered and what the researcher hopes to learn. For additional information on our current clinical trials, please contact Kelly Davis at 202-822-6311 ext. 103 or via email at kelly@dcdocs.com.
