We do participate
in studies initiated and sponsored by pharmaceutical companies,
but we always make sure that the medicines being studied in
these clinical trials are safe and effective. In addition,
all of our studies are first reviewed and approved by the
Columbia University Human Subjects Committee, called the Institutional
Review Board. The sponsoring company is always listed on our
consent forms and we would be happy to share with you all
the information from the company that we have. In general,
pharmaceutical companies usually sponsor many of the newer
and more exciting drug treatment trials.
