Can I insist on joining a trial?
No. Each clinical trial
has specific requirements, based on what the researchers are trying to find out. For example, a trial may need breast cancer
patients whose disease has reached a particular stage.
If you are not the type of patient the trial needs, then that trial is not suitable for you, and you will not be able to join it. You are entitled however to receive information on all the clinical trials for which you are eligible.
