Who will be told?

If you agree to take part in a clinical trial suggested by the hospital you are attending, your GP will be told only if you give your consent. If you have any queries or problems during the trial you should talk to the specialist doctor responsible for the trial, or your research nurse.

Your medical records concerning the trial remain confidential, although a member of any relevant drug manufacturing company may look them. No one who looks at your notes can give information to anyone outside the health care team looking after you. In the same way, when the results are published you will not be identified.
