For me though, helping our clients understand the process of our clinical research trials is first and foremost. In many cases people come to us because they’ve been diagnosed with a condition or illness. A good portion of those clients are people who have medications and/or treatments that don’t seem to be working for them. My main job is to let clients know that our research studies are designed specifically to test the safety and efficacy of treatments for humans. The treatments may help us all understand their condition as well.

We’ve recently been conducting clinical research trials on treatment for Fibromyalgia. This is just one of the research studies we’ve been working on here in DeLand, Florida. Some of our investigational treatments have shown promising results, but there is a need to do additional research studies to test investigational methods that may help us understand your condition.

The research studies will enroll those already diagnosed with fibromyalgia, which includes symptoms like chronic muscle pain, insomnia or waking up feeling tired, difficulty remembering, tension, anxiety, and weakness in limbs. In order to participate in the studies volunteers must be diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Avail Clinical Research will not take volunteers who:

• have any evidence or treatment of malignancy within the previous 5 years,
• have a history of alcohol or substance abuse within the previous 5 years,
• have used an investigatory drug or participated in an investigatory study within 30 days of the screening,
• are pregnant, or
• are breast-feeding.

Avail Clinical Research will provide participants with study related care, including physical examinations, laboratory services and study medications. Participants will also be compensated for time and travel.
