Resources / Clinical Trials

Clinical Trials

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new ways to prevent, detect, treat, or manage various health conditions and diseases.

Are you interested in participating in a clinical trial?

By choosing to take part, you may be given access to an innovative and potentially promising new treatment. Since joining a trial is completely up to you, we encourage you to take your time, ask questions, and learn as much as you can before deciding if it’s the right choice for you. You can inquire about things such as the type of trial, risks and benefits, potential side effects, costs, and time investment.

Please see below to see currently available trials recruiting participants in Canada. Note that Liver Canada does not provide medical advice, and reference to these trials is for informational and awareness purposes only. As always, please consult your health care team to see if a clinical trial is the right option for you at this time.
