The Expert Series S5E7: Participating in Clinical Trials

Clinical trials make new and better treatments for lupus possible. In this episode of The Expert Series, we sit down and talk with Stephanie Slan, director of IMPACT+ (Improving Minority Participation and Awareness in Clinical Trials) at the Lupus Foundation of America about clinical trial participation. Stephanie also debunks some myths about clinical trials might keep people from wanting to participate.

It’s important for people with lupus to consider participating in these trials to further the advancement of lupus medicines and treatment. This episode breaks down eligibility criteria, what happens during a clinical trial, and what happens with your information after a trial.
