Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
Occurrence of any treatment-emergent adverse event assessed as drug-related by the investigator
Timeframe: Part 1: up to Week 19, Part 2: up to Week 10
. Any finding in the medical examination (including blood pressure, pulse rate or electrocardiogram) deviating from normal and assessed as clinically relevant by the investigator
. Repeated measurement of systolic blood pressure outside the range of 90 to 140 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure outside the range of 50 to 90 mmHg, or pulse rate outside the range of 50 to 90 beats per minute
. Any laboratory value outside the reference range that the investigator considers to be of clinical relevance and, in particular: alanine aminotransferase (ALT) above upper limit of normal (ULN) + 20%, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) above ULN + 20%, gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) above ULN + 20%, Lipase or amylase above ULN + 20%, bilirubin above 1.2x ULN (except for cases of Gilbert's Syndrome), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \< 80 mL/min/1.73 m²
. Part 1: Body weight increase or decrease (self-reported) of greater than 5% in the 3 months prior to screening
