Clinical trials can be an important part of your care.
They aim to find new ways to provide treatments, make diagnoses, manage or prevent disease. Participation is voluntary and each person decides if a clinical trial is right for them.
Clinical Trials OverviewHow does a patient get involved?
- You may be approached by Kaiser Permanente staff or physician to see if you are interested in participating in a clinical trial.
