Clinical Studies

Current studies:

  • Combination therapy for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis: Even the best drugs for these conditions will not work for everyone. The thought is that combining two of the new drugs will give some relief to those who are failing their current treatment.
  • A new drug for treatment of MASH (metabolic-dysfunction associated steatohepatitis, formerly called nonalcoholic fatty liver).
  • A new drug for hepatitis C.

If you have one of these conditions and want to learn more about the studies, call our office and speak to Sameer. There are some advantages to being in a study:

  • You will have access to the latest advances.
  • There are no copays or charges for any of the visits, medications, or tests.
  • You actually will get paid for the time and effort you put into the study.
  • You can feel pleased knowing you are helping researchers and doctors in their fight to conquer your disease.
