Your welfare is our prime concern
The safety and well-being of our volunteers is at the forefront
of everything that we do. Our trials are strictly regulated by the
Medicines and Healthcare products Regulation Agency (MHRA), an
independent body not influenced by the pharmaceutical industry.
Each study is also reviewed by an independent Ethics Committee,
made up of expert members, e.g. doctors, pharmacists etc, and 'lay'
people, who are responsible for ensuring that your safety has been
thoroughly considered, that the information provided to you is
fair, balanced and accurate - and that your rights as a volunteer
are maintained.
Informed consent
Before you participate in a trial, all aspects of the study will
be explained thoroughly to you - including any risks/benefits of
the trial - before obtaining your informed consent.
Signing an Informed Consent Form does not obligate you to
participate in the clinical trial. You may change your mind and
leave a study at any time, without providing any explanation.
