THE RESEARCH PHYSICIAN ABOUT THIS RESEARCH

Additional information

  • The new compound is being developed for the treatment of Parkinson's disease.
  • The new compound will be administered to humans for the first time in this trial.
  • The trial consists of 3 parts: part 1a, part 1b and part 2. You can only participate once.
    • In part 1b and part 2, the compound is administered multiple times as capsules via the mouth.
  • In part 1a and part 2 of the trial, your heart rate will constantly be monitored at certain times for 24 or 48 hours. For this you will have stickers (electrodes) on your chest that are attached to a device. If you are connected to this device, you cannot shower, and you must behave as calmly as possible. Occasionally you will even have to lie still for 15 minutes without moving, talking, or sleeping. You will also not be able to listen to music, watch TV or use a laptop or telephone then.

Veelgestelde vragen

Je mag maximaal 4 keer per jaar deelnemen aan een onderzoek. Tussen twee onderzoeken moeten minstens 30 dagen zitten. Voor sommige onderzoeken geldt een langere wachttijd.

 

Je kunt tijdens het onderzoek last krijgen van bijwerkingen. Voordat een geneesmiddel op mensen mag worden getest, is het al uitgebreid onderzocht in een laboratorium. Daardoor kunnen we goed voorspellen welke bijwerkingen je eventueel kunt krijgen en kunnen we je daarop voorbereiden. Het komt dus bijna nooit voor dat deelnemers last krijgen van onverwachte bijwerkingen. Een allergische reactie op het middel komt gemiddeld bijvoorbeeld één keer per jaar voor.

Als je meedoet aan geneesmiddelenonderzoek, moet je een paar keer per dag iets doen voor het onderzoek, zoals een test of gezondheidscheck. Maar je hebt ook veel tijd voor jezelf! In het onderzoekscentrum vind je van alles om die tijd mee in te vullen. Er zijn bijvoorbeeld computers, Playstations, tv’s met Netflix, maar ook een tafeltennistafel, pooltafel en een dartbord. En natuurlijk is er wifi, dus neem gerust je eigen laptop of tablet mee. Sommige deelnemers gaan voor hun werk of studie aan de slag. Maar je kunt natuurlijk ook een paar dagen lekker ontspannen.

Hoeveel geld je krijgt voor jouw deelname aan een geneesmiddelenonderzoek, wordt bepaald door de duur van het onderzoek. Hoe langer het onderzoek duurt, hoe hoger de vergoeding. Maar er zijn meer factoren die de hoogte van de vergoeding bepalen, zoals speciale medische handelingen.
