Your cancer your life - rights in regard to research (introduction)Cancer research is necessary if we are to find out more about all aspects of cancer. It is quite likely that you will be asked to take part in some type of research. You need to know what your rights are in this regard. Some research simply involves gathering facts. For example, if a researcher is trying to find the cause of the particular type of cancer that you have, you could be asked to complete a questionnaire asking about all sorts of past experiences, such as exposure to chemicals and drugs, your dietary history, previous illnesses, where you have lived and worked and so on. Some research involves developing new tests or forms of treatment. You could be asked to undergo a new type of test which is not normally done. This would mean that they would not be sure what the results of the test mean and these results would not be of any use to your practitioner in planning your treatment. You could be asked to undergo a new form of treatment, perhaps with new drugs or a dosage or combination of drugs which is not standard. At this stage, I will just detail what your rights include in any type of research. *21/40/1* Cancer «Cheap Cialis Online» |
