Asthma affects about 3 million people in Canada. According to the Asthma Society of Canada, six out of ten people with asthma do not have control of their disease. It is estimated that 1.5 million Canadians have been diagnosed with COPD (such as chronic bronchitis and emphysema), and an additional 1.6 million Canadians with the illness remain undiagnosed.
Medications play an important role in the control of symptoms of lung diseases. The discovery of new and improved medications cannot occur without the participation of people like you in clinical research studies.
