Why aren’t all CF care centers involved in clinical trials?
Larger CF care centers have more people with CF and can more easily recruit for clinical trials. These centers have clinical research coordinators who recruit people with CF and also help conduct trials. However, the CF Foundation is working hard to give more people everywhere the chance to participate in trials. Our Web site has information on what everyone can do to participate. A Clinical Trials Hotline (1-877-8CF-JOIN) also is available to help answer questions. Finally, the CF Foundation has increased the number of care centers who have research coordinators and can offer clinical trials.
