The Expert Series S5E7: Participating in Clinical Trials

Clinical trials make new and better treatments for lupus
possible. In this episode of The Expert Series, we sit down and
talk with Stephanie Slan, director of IMPACT+ (Improving Minority
Participation and Awareness in Clinical Trials) at the Lupus
Foundation of America about clinical trial participation.
Stephanie also debunks some myths about clinical trials might
keep people from wanting to participate.


It’s important for people with lupus to consider participating in
these trials to further the advancement of lupus medicines and
treatment. This episode breaks down eligibility criteria, what
happens during a clinical trial, and what happens with your
information after a trial.
