Why Participate in a Clinical Trial?

Clinical trials are the only path to approval for new treatments for ALS. They are also a way for people with ALS to access investigational treatments and contribute to the advancement of research that can aid in the discovery of new drug targets, biomarkers, or improving quality of life for people with ALS.

We invite community members to share comments and feedback on ALS trials. You can click a trial to read the community comments and login to join the conversation.

"Participating in trials allows me to contribute to critical research. It gives me hope to have a part in identifying new biomarkers and treatments that might benefit me, but will ultimately get us closer to new treatments. I will keep participating in every research opportunity I can to help find causes and treatments for this awful disease."

-Sandra Mikush
