Correct, they are free. The drug company covers the cost. Highly recommend checking out the SparkCures website. Once you input your basic MM bloodwork info into the site, their staff will assist in identifying active trials around the country that you might qualify for. Super helpful resource!

Clinical trials are free. My husband has participated in several. Without them, there would be no new treatments.

Clinical trials are funded by pharmaceutical companies, government agencies, or nonprofits. About 10% of trials lead to FDA-approved treatments, highlighting the careful process behind developing new therapies. 😄
