Question: What are clinical trials for dumping syndrome?
Answer: Clinical trials—and other types of clinical studies—are part of medical research and involve people like you. When you volunteer to take part in a clinical study, you help doctors and researchers learn more about disease and improve health care for people in the future.

Researchers are studying many aspects of dumping syndrome, such as the risk for dumping syndrome following different types of stomach or esophagus surgery.

Question: What clinical studies for dumping syndrome are looking for participants?
Answer: You can find clinical studies on dumping syndrome at ClinicalTrials.gov. In addition to searching for federally funded studies, you can expand or narrow your search to include clinical studies from industry, universities, and individuals; however, the NIH does not review these studies and cannot ensure they are safe. Always talk with your health care provider before you participate in a clinical study.
