What is Withdrawal of Consent?

Withdrawal of consent occurs when a participant in a clinical trial decides to discontinue their involvement in the study. This decision can be made at any time, for any reason, and without penalty or loss of benefits to which the participant is otherwise entitled. Once consent is withdrawn, researchers must stop collecting new data from the participant, though previously collected data may still be used, depending on the trial's policies and regulatory guidelines.

For example, a participant in a trial testing a new arthritis treatment may choose to withdraw if they feel the study procedures are too time-consuming or if they experience side effects.

Why is Withdrawal of Consent Important?

Withdrawal of consent is a vital component of ethical research practices. Key reasons include:

• Participant Rights: Ensures that individuals have full control over their involvement in the study.
• Informed Decision-Making: Respects a participant’s right to reassess their comfort with continuing the trial.
• Trust in Research: Builds confidence that participants are not obligated to stay in a trial against their will.
• Compliance with Regulations: Meets ethical standards set by regulatory authorities and international guidelines like the Declaration of Helsinki.

The ability to withdraw consent underscores the commitment to voluntary participation in clinical research.

How Withdrawal of Consent Relates to Your Clinical Trial Experience

At Anchor Medical Research LLC, you are fully informed about your right to withdraw consent during the informed consent process. If you choose to withdraw:

• You can discuss your decision with the research team, who will respect and process your withdrawal promptly.
• Your health and safety will remain a priority, with appropriate follow-up care if needed.
• No further data will be collected from you unless explicitly agreed upon.

Your contributions up until the point of withdrawal are still valuable, and you retain the right to withdraw without affecting your relationship with the research team or access to future trials.

What This Means for You

As a participant, the right to withdraw consent ensures that your involvement in the trial is fully voluntary and based on your comfort and well-being. You are empowered to make decisions about your participation at any point.

At Anchor Medical Research LLC, we respect and prioritize your autonomy, ensuring that your rights and well-being are protected throughout your trial experience.
