Financial and emotional toxicity – clinical trial participation

Pfizer offers reimbursements to clinical trial participants, however the study must be conducted by Pfizer and not medical institution where the majority of trials are conducted:

Speak up and make sure to be heard.
Remember, without you, the participant, the study could not move forward. You have the ability to address cost reimbursement with the PI (principal investigator). It may not always work, but it’s worth the try. Calculate the cost i.e. transportation, lodging, food, etc. and see what can be covered by the participating institution

More power to you.
