Learn more about clinical trials at Excell
Clinical research trials create a new opportunity for patients to receive alternative or more varied treatment, and to get up close and personal treatment from healthcare professionals. Often, Clinical research studies provide financially viable treatment options that may not have otherwise been available. By participating in a clinical trial, you would be aiding healthcare officials in their efforts to advance medical knowledge and to find new and better treatment options for patients.
New Treatments For Longer and Better-Quality Lives
The primary goal of all clinical research studies is to determine that the new treatment is both effective and safe for patients. A clinical trial may seek a cure or new methods to ease the lives of patients with chronic illnesses. Participating in a clinical research study allows you to receive the most cutting-edge treatment or procedures in the medical field, and to assist in helping other patients live longer and better-quality lives.
Patient Safety
To ensure the safety of patients during clinical trials, Excell follows guidelines set by organizations such as the U.S. Food & Drug Administration and the Global International Conference on Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use Good Clinical Practices (ICH GCP).
