Clinical Trials Related to Gastroenterology
Gastroenterology focuses on the digestive system from the mouth to the anus, both functional and structural, and its disorders including reflux, pancreatitis, colon cancer, as well as irritable bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, and irritable bowel syndrome. Many diseases of the colon and rectum can be prevented or minimized by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, practicing good bowel habits, and getting screened for cancer. It is recommended that average-risk patients be screened at age 45.
Participate in a clinical trial to help find alternative treatment options for different gastroenterology conditions.
