Where can I learn about clinical trials in the UK?
As soon as the MND Association learns of a new trial underway in the UK, we will post information on the Treatment Trials page of our website. We also work with the co-ordinators of the trial (often pharmaceutical companies) to produce information sheets for people with MND. Information on clinical trials is also included in our quarterly magazine Thumb Print. The centres recruiting participants for the trial will also notify eligible people. Two clinical trials involving UK patients are currently underway; recruitment for both has now closed. More information on the objectives and results of treatment trials carried out around the world is available on our treatment trials page . You can also read more about clinical trials taking place overseas on the American ALS Association website and on a dedicated American government website.
