Finding Patterns In Clinical Study Experiences of Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Participation in medical trials usually favors a particular demographic group. But there is limited research available to explain what trial attributes affect the completion of these specific demographic groups.
This study will admit a wide range of data on the clinical trial experience of Multiple Sclerosis patients to determine which factors prevail in limiting a patient's ability to join or finish a trial.
It will also try to analyze data from the perspective of different demographic groups to check for recurring trends which might yield insights for the sake of future Multiple Sclerosis patients.
