We run a range of clinical trials for many diseases — see below for all current trials and ongoing programs. If appropriate, please consider participating: you'll be helping us create a healthier future for all.
The benefits of clinical trials:
- enable deep insights and understanding of disease
- identify new treatments and therapies
- help decide government funding for new drugs.
All our trials adhere to strict protocols around safety, ethics and privacy.
