Very timely and in ever-increasing demand, services like Acurian hold a glimmer of hope to those suffering beyond the reach of currently-approved medical drug treatments and therapies. Offering state-by-state listings of clinical trials of cutting-edge drugs under investigation both by pharmaceutical manufacturers and/or academic research facilities, Acurian can serve as a vital link to users who want to be included, but who might not otherwise know where to look. An academic resource, the Acurian site is quick to note the experimental nature of the treatments to which it links. That said, it is there for those who feel they must look beyond the currently-sanctioned armory of treatments. Providing such data as length of studies listed, a given drug's side effects, and stage in the FDA approval process, Acurian promises to help many make informed decisions about some of life's hardest choices.
