Volunteering for a Clinical Trial

Keep Memory Alive invites you to learn more about how you can participate in research at Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health. Clinical trials are the only way to test new drugs and advance treatment for neurocognitive disorders. Your involvement is critical to developing new treatments that may lead to significant scientific advances.

We suggest you read more at www.clinicaltrials.gov, but compelling reasons to participate in clinical trials include the opportunity to access new drug treatments before they are widely available, to take a proactive approach to a disease that you and your family care about, and perhaps to be a part of the cure for your or the next generation. We look forward to a day when Alzheimer’s is regarded as a disease of the past, just as we consider polio today.

As a participant in a clinical trial at the Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health, you will receive regular assessments by healthcare professionals specializing in memory and movement disorders such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease and Multiple Sclerosis.
