Rare Disease Report: Five Myths That Slow Down Clinical Trial Enrollment

Melissa Hogan, founder of Saving Case – an organization designed to help raise awareness of Hunter syndrome and engage people in the rare disease community – recently sat down with Rare Disease Report to list the 5 myths that can deter a parent from enrolling a child in a clinical trial.
 
The 5 myths are:

1. My child’s doctor will let me know if there is a trial.
2. My child won’t qualify.
3. I can’t afford the travel costs for a clinical trial.
4. I can’t figure out the logistics of making it happen in our family.
5. A clinical trial is very risky.
