Clinical trials – special research that involves people like you – give physicians and scientists the opportunity to evaluate whether new drugs and therapies can safely and effectively treat diseases.
When you choose OU Health to provide healthcare for yourself and your family, you gain access to the latest advances in care – often as a result of clinical trials – before such treatments become widely available.
