FAQs
What areas of therapy do your studies cover?
We conduct trials mainly for patients with asthma, allergies, HAE, sinusitis or COPD. However, we occasionally do studies on bronchitis and other respiratory infections as well.
How many visits are there?
The number of visits varies by length of study. Generally, there are from 3 to 10 visits over the study period. The visits need to occur within a certain window of time, and we will make every effort to accommodate your schedule.
Do I have to pay to participate?
No. Most studies offer compensation for time for persons who enroll in and complete a study. Compensation is prorated if a person withdraws.
How long are the studies?
The duration of each study differs. Generally the studies last from 6 weeks to 2 years. We have some studies which last a year or so. Patients may discontinue from the studies at any time by notifying our office.
Do I have to come to every visit?
We enroll you in the study with the hopes that you will complete each visit. However, if your condition worsens during the course of the study, we will treat you appropriately and withdraw you from the study if needed. If at any time you wish to discontinue the trial, simply inform the study coordinator and she will remove you from the study.
Are research medications approved?
We conduct studies with medications not yet approved for prescription as well as those which are. Some of our studies compare various approved medications or treatment regimens. Research projects also evaluate medication delivery systems.
