Clinical Trials |
New mesothelioma
treatments are being evaluated in mesothelioma clinical trials,
and we all hope for a mesothelioma cure. Mesothelioma clinical
trials are research studies that evaluate new mesothelioma
treatments for safety, effectively and through the research that
is acquired will one day result in a mesothelioma cure. There are
no guarantees that a treatment offered through a mesothelioma
clinical trial will work, and because the treatments are in the
trial stage, there are some risks. However, a mesothelioma
clinical trial is not undertaken unless the researchers believe
the treatment may have some value.

| Benefits
of Participating in a Clinical Trial |
| Mesothelioma
clinical trials offer you the opportunity to receive the best
healthcare available and to contribute to scientific evidence that
will one day result in a mesothelioma cure.
You can choose to participate in a mesothelioma clinical trial
and still work with your current healthcare team. Some of the
benefits you may derive from participating in a mesothelioma
clinical trial include:
- new treatments with mesothelioma drugs that may be more
effective than the standard treatment
- mesothelioma doctors and nurses who will closely monitor
your health status and watch very carefully for any side
effects and changes in your condition while in the
mesothelioma clinical trial
- part of your mesothelioma treatment may be free of charge
- satisfaction knowing that your involvement may ultimately
help other people and result in mesothelioma cure.
- knowing that, if one of the treatments being tested (either
new or old) is apparently much better than the other, you will
be switched to the better treatment.
