The risk of participating in clinical trials is outlined in the informed consent. It should be noted that that there may be unpleasant, serious or life threatening side effects during the trial, or the drug treatment could prove to be ineffective.
The protocol treatment may require more of the participant's time than would a non-protocol treatment, leading to more treatments, hospital stays, trips to the study site or complex dose requirements.
