Recruitment of participants

Objective of clinical studies

Main aim of clinical studies consists in the possibility to assess the effectiveness and safety of new medicines and treatment methods. It results in constant increase in their efficiency, and thus in continuous improvement of medical care. Each research project consists of several phases, during which the answers to more and more questions are found.

Phase I
The stage which makes it possible to determine the highest dose of a medicine that a patient can take without side effects. The safety of study participants is of utmost importance here, so this phase is dedicated only to several dozen patients.

Phase II
Time for evidence. This stage is aimed at proving the effectiveness of the studied medicine. It is already dedicated to several hundred participants.

Phase III
Intended already for over 1000 patients. In this way, treatment test results are more reliable.

Badania diagnostyczne

How does the recruitment process for clinical studies look like?

Depending on whether the treatment or a preventive method is being tested, the recruitment process is dedicated to ill or healthy volunteers. They of course need to meet numerous criteria. Clinical studies comply with legal regulations and their participants sign conscious consents to take part in them.

Why is it worth to take part in clinical studies?

Thanks to clinical studies, life-saving medicines or those improving the quality of patients’ life can be introduced into the market. This form of help probably constitutes the crucial argument. When it comes to those suffering from a particular disease, an important aspect consists for sure in the possibility to use treatment methods which have not become common practice yet. For the entire duration of trials, patients receive professional medical assistance and their health condition is monitored. It is worth to mention that the participant can withdraw from the program at any moment.

We recommend the offer of clinical studies conducted at our New Therapies Centre!

We invite you to cooperation
