The doctors of Sleep Medicine Associates of Texas have participated in multiple clinical research studies for the past fifteen years. The studies are performed at the same location as their private practice.

Our doctors have been selected to play a role in testing investigational therapies that may offer advances and better treatment options for a variety of sleep disorders. By interacting with physicians and pharmaceutical companies, nationally and internationally, our physicians have played a role in the development of numerous investigational therapies, which allows us to offer a wider range of treatments to our patients.

What is a Clinical Trial?

Clinical trial refers to the study of a drug or medical device to see if it is safe and effective for people to use. Study volunteers are always given complete information about the study, including possible side effects and benefits. An agreement called an “Informed Consent” outlines the details of the study and must be read and understood prior to study enrollment. The information is not only given to the volunteer in writing, there is always an opportunity to ask questions. The doctor will always tell you what your treatment options are other than participating in the study. Most studies pay a set amount to the volunteer for their time and travel. A study participant can choose to discontinue a study at any time.

Taking part in a clinical trial may allow a volunteer to try an investigational treatment that potentially may be more effective than currently available therapies. By volunteering you may contribute a better understanding of a particular Sleep Disorder and how well a treatment works.

Many studies are double blinded, meaning neither the patient nor the doctor know weather the patient is receiving the experimental treatment or a placebo (a substance that looks like the tested drug, but is inactive).
