Without phase I testing there would be no new medicines available to combat the diseases and conditions which almost all of us face at some time in our lives.
Many of us volunteer to donate blood to help save lives, we choose to do so because we know blood is needed and understand its importance.
Choosing to be a volunteer in a clinical trial appeals to the same sense of duty and service. Take a moment to reflect on the unique importance of being a volunteer in developing a new ground breaking medicine for asthma or cancer. Without people just like you it simply will never happen.
