Participating in a clinical trial at Altus Clinical Research means joining a community dedicated to advancing medical science with transparency, respect, and support. Here is a step-by-step guide to what you can expect at every stage of your clinical research journey.
Awareness and Consideration
It starts with learning about a clinical trial that might be relevant to your health. Altus Research provides clear information about study goals, procedures, and eligibility so you can consider whether to participate. You’ll have access to open communication to ask questions and receive honest answers.
Pre-Screening and Screening
If interested, you begin with pre-screening to see if you meet basic study criteria, followed by formal screening involving medical assessments like physical exams and lab tests to confirm your eligibility. The research team will explain the protocol, including the schedule of visits and treatments, ensuring you understand your role.
Informed Consent and Enrollment
Once you decide to participate, you’ll receive a detailed informed consent form that outlines everything about the study—purpose, benefits, risks, and your rights. Altus Clinical Research prioritizes participant empowerment and privacy, ensuring you sign consent only when fully informed. This marks your official enrollment.
Active Participation
During the trial, you will attend scheduled visits and undergo procedures as per the study requirements. The Altus team supports you throughout, answering questions promptly and helping you navigate the process. Transparency continues with clear communication about what to expect at each step.
Ongoing Support and Monitoring

At the study’s conclusion, final assessments are conducted. Results and any next steps are communicated clearly. Post-trial follow-up may be available to discuss your health and how the research contributes to future treatments.
