Clinical trials and research studies
Clinical trials are a very important part of the research process. New treatments, medications and medical devices cannot be approved for use in Australia without going through clinical trials.
https://thermh-prod.thirststudios.io/research/clinical-trials-research-studiesThe Clinical Trials Centre (CTC) is a dedicated purpose-built space for conducting clinical trials. All clinical trial visits at the Royal Melbourne Hospital take place in this space.
https://thermh-prod.thirststudios.io/research/about-clinical-trials/our-clinical-trials-centreClinical trials for medication, treatment and devices are divided into phases.
https://thermh-prod.thirststudios.io/research/about-clinical-trials/clinical-trial-phasesA clinical trial is a scientific study of a new medication or device that involves human volunteers. Clinical trials are a test of the effectiveness of the new treatment and how safe it is. Clinical trials are also used to find new uses for existing medicines.
