Thinking of joining a study?

A clinical study tests a treatment, device, or question about health in people. Taking part is voluntary, and you can leave at any time. Before joining, talk with your doctor and the study team about the possible benefits, risks, and what will be expected of you.

Each public record lists the study's status, locations, eligibility, and a contact for questions.

Registering a clinical trial?

Prospective registration is required before the first participant is enrolled. Researchers and organizations submit and manage records through the Protocol Registration System, with registry quality-control review before each record is published.
