Will I need to change, stop, or stabilize my current treatment?
The public registry appears to mention rules about current treatment, stability, stopping treatment, or dose changes. Do not change your treatment for a study without medical guidance. Ask the study team and your clinician what is required, what is not allowed, and how safety is monitored.
Will I need to travel or attend in-person visits?
The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask which sites are open, how many visits are expected, whether any steps can be done remotely, and whether travel costs or compensation are listed.
