Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 Special Notice: LDN's First US Clinical Trial Needs Your Help As announced in our Latest News for November 2003, Jill P. , MD, Professor of Medicine at Penn State's Hershey Medical Center, is currently enrolling patients in an 8-week pilot study. This will test the effectiveness of a low dose of naltrexone in offering relief to patients suffering from symptoms of Crohn's Disease and, if successful, should lead to a full-fledged clinical trial. As of early February 2004, the study had been able to enlist only 10 volunteers with Crohn's disease to participate. This despite the fact that those few who have so far signed up are very enthusiastic about the relief they are experiencing from the LDN. Here is the chance that members of the LDN- group have been waiting for: to help LDN achieve medical verification and legitimacy through a university-sponsored scientific clinical trial. If you know anyone on the East Coast of the United States who has Crohn's disease, please ask them to consider participating in this study being held by the Hershey Medical Center of Pennsylvania State University. Cost of medication, office visits, and blood work are paid by the study. The study is described at this website address: http://www.hmc.psu.edu/colorectal/research/naltrexone.htm. Those interested should contact Bingaman, R.N. at 717-531-8108. LDN Website Editors email@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
