About Clinical Trials
Clinical trials play a key role in testing new treatments to determine their potential benefit for patients. Mayo Clinic conducts more than 3,000 clinical trials and research studies each year and often coordinates national clinical trials involving many medical centers.

Clinical trials are closely controlled, scientific research studies involving patients and volunteers. Participants should not think of a clinical trial as a treatment. Participants generally do not benefit directly from trials, but the additional care they receive while participating may result in an improved quality of life or quicker treatment of related medical needs. Mayo Clinic physicians and research coordinators will discuss each clinical trial in detail with participants so they are fully informed about the trial and its purpose.
