Clinical Trials
Clinical Trials
Sylvester conducts more clinical research than any other institution in South Florida and has a wide range of trials in place. Translating research breakthroughs into more effective treatments remains one of Sylvester’s highest priorities.
Phase I Clinical Trials Program
The National Institutes of Health Roadmap for Medical Research calls for providing “the necessary foundation for advancing basic and clinical research” to speed promising therapies from the laboratory into the clinic for patient care. The Phase I Clinical Trials Program at Sylvester was created to fulfill this philosophy within a safe environment to provide patient care.
The program is comprised of a multidisciplinary team of physicians, scientists, pharmacists, laboratory technicians, nurses, statisticians, research coordinators, and data managers. This team has dedicated laboratory, pharmacy, and chemotherapy administration areas, which all work together to provide the highest standard of care to patients who participate in Phase I trials
