If I take part in a liver cancer clinical trial, how will my safety be protected? — Expert Video

Dr. Ghassan Abou-Alfa, MD, of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, explains that participation in clinical trials is entirely voluntary, with full respect for patient choice, safety, and privacy. Personal information remains confidential, and data is anonymized. If safety issues arise, they are promptly addressed. An Institutional Review Board (IRB), which includes patient representatives, oversees a trial to ensure ethical conduct, protect participants, and evaluate risks and benefits. Dr. Abou-Alfa concludes with gratitude for patients and their families, recognizing their vital role in advancing research through partnership with physicians and researchers.
