The wellbeing of our volunteers is always our first priority and we have an outstanding reputation within the industry for performing high quality clinical research complying with strict clinical trial legislation. We have successfully conducted over 360 clinical trials and this number continues to grow.
We are majority owned by the North West Lung Centre Charity and due to the unique way that we operate, all profits generated by us are then reinvested into the research of future treatments for respiratory diseases. We are located in our own purpose built state of the art facility on the grounds of Wythenshawe Hospital and employ a team of dedicated medical professionals who are committed to excellence.
Read what our volunteers have had to say about our facilities, staff and what its really like taking part in a clinical trial at the Medicines Evaluation Unit.
All medications from simple paracetamol for headache through to life saving cancer drugs must go through the clinical trial process before they can be prescribed by Doctors. Without Volunteers like you we would not be able to develop new treatments for future generations.
All clinical trials are voluntary. You always have the right to choose whether or not you will take part in a clinical trial and you have the right to leave a clinical trial at any time, for any reason.
