Healthy Volunteer Clinical Trials and Studies
Come Be Part
of The Solution!
Are you at least 35 year old and in generally good health?
The purpose of this research study is to collect blood samples that will be used for future testing to establish normal reference ranges in the development of new diagnostic devices. The study will require 1 visit to our office. You must be at least 35 years of age and you must be in generally good health. If you qualify for the study you will be compensated for your time and travel.
At the screening visit, you will be asked to read and sign an Informed Consent document. Lab tests and a study related physical exam will also be done.
There is also compensation for time associated with participation in our healthy volunteer studies.
If you or if someone you know are interested in learning more about this opportunity, please call our office at 585-288-0890 to schedule an appointment for a free screening, and to discuss this study.
Sincerely,
Patricia S. Larrabee, RN NP
Director

| What are Clinical Trials? |
| They are research studies that answer specific questions about vaccines, new therapies or new ways of using known treatments. Clinical trials are used to determine whether new drugs or treatments are safe and effective. Carefully conducted clinical trials are the fastest and safest way to find treatments that work. |
| Why participate in clinical trials? |
| Participants in clinical trials can play a more active role in their own health care, gain access to new research treatments before they are widely available, and help others by contributing to medical research. |
| What is a “Healthy Volunteer Study”? |
| When a company makes a new laboratory machine to analyze blood, or when a new methodology is developed for doing a lab test on blood, those medical advancements need to be tested. Whether it is the calibration of the machine, or to develop standards for “normal” vs. “abnormal” for a new test, blood samples from a wide range of people are needed in order to test the new machine or the new test.
The healthy volunteer studies conducted at Rochester Clinical Research typically involve drawing several tubes of blood from the study volunteer, for which the volunteer receives a small monetary stipend, and the satisfaction of helping others by advancing medical science. RCR is currently enrolling patients for a “healthy volunteer study”. |
