Clinical trials are an important part of improving the lives of people with chronic diseases and developing innovative medications and supports. This new resource, “What do clinical trials mean for me?” can help patients, families, and other community members to understand the role of clinical trials in COPD. Learn more about the clinical study process, advantages and disadvantages of participation, what to expect when you are a part of research, and more. If you are interested in talking about clinical trials with your doctor or healthcare team, this resource also suggests common questions to ask about research projects and if they are a good fit for you.
