A clinical trial is a voluntary medical research study involving humans. In the case of Adams Clinical Trials, all of the studies conducted are to test drugs made by pharmaceutical companies. It is illegal in the United States for pharmaceutical companies to evaluate whether their own drugs are safe and effective, so a neutral third-party such as Adams Clinical Trials must handle all aspects of the testing. This third party has tight restrictions on its financial involvement in the pharmaceutical company and would face substantial criminal penalties for violating these limits.
Medical information. Every participant in our clinical trials is given a medical evaluation, with a minimum of a medical and psychiatric examination, electrocardiogram, and an analysis of your blood chemistry by several physicians.
Altruism. Your participating in a clinical trial will make a difference in the field of psychiatry.
The results of these studies will provide future patients with detailed information on the benefits and risks of drugs.
Participating in a clinical trial is free. Every participant in our clinical trials is given some level of free medical care, with a minimum of a medical and psychiatric examination and an analysis of your blood chemistry. Participants are also compensated $50 to $100 for time and travel, with the exact amount varying in each study.
