Clinical Trials

The Scientific-Technical Clinical Trials Service is the platform for the comprehensive coordination and management of the clinical trials performed in the health centres reporting to the Navarra Health Department and the relevant autonomous agencies. It is also a vessel for the promotion, support and facilitation of clinical trials and observational studies for both commercial studies sponsored by the pharmaceutical industry and independent research.

Main goals:

1. To offer support infrastructure for clinical research to professionals in the medical sector.
2. To facilitate, support and advise promoters and CROs in order to simplify procedures and speed up processing times.
3. To promote clinical research and integrate it into clinical practice, in an effort to offer patients access to new treatments and drugs, which would otherwise be unavailable, guaranteeing their safety.

At present, the service manages 250 clinical trials led by 99 researchers with 24 different specialties. They are all aimed at promoting people’s health and wellbeing, offering new solutions and bringing hope to patients with no further treatment options.

Network:

• The Scientific-Technical Clinical Trials Service belongs to SCReN (Spanish Clinical Research Network), Platform of Clinical Research Units and Clinical Trials of the Carlos III Health Institute.
