The London Clinic Research Centre
The CRC is responsible for managing and running clinical research studies taking place at The London Clinic.
Clinical studies are research involving people taking part to help figure out if a medicine, surgical procedure or behavioural intervention can benefit patients' lives and improve their health.
Over the past two years, the CRC has contributed to clinical research studies in the fields of:
- Sickle Cell Disease
- Parkinson’s Disease
- Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
- Asthma
- Haematology
Performing over 200 visits and supporting other organisations through provision of specialist services.
The London Clinic’s aim is to ensure our patients have access to a wide range of treatment choices, including new therapies that may not be available anywhere else.
The London Clinic is more than a hospital, and we invest in improving patients' lives beyond treatment.
The Clinical Research Centre strives to help bring patients the newest, most innovative treatments.
The CRC also provides a range of services to leading clinical research organisations. We work closely with the BARTS Hospital, Imperial University, AstraZeneca, Ablative solutions, ReCor Medical and Queen Anne Street Medical Centre.
Clinical trials at The London Clinic
Our primary clinical trial studies include:
We have four trials currently working with new devices on the market to establish their efficiency with lowering blood pressure of patients that have exhausted all other avenues to stabilise their blood pressure.
A randomised study to evaluate the use of a certain medication that is used to treat asthma and COPD.
Three studies using DAT scans to monitor the efficacy of Parkinson’s disease treatment.
