The Business of Making a Trial Possible

When an institution opens a clinical trial, it incurs financial and legal obligations. The Clinical Trials Office at The MCG Cancer Center is responsible for compliance with internal policies and procedures, clinical trial contracts and other external requirements.  

The office's goal is to open as many cutting-edge Phase I translational clinical trials as we can handle.

The office ensures that the necessary personnel, space, supplies and equipment needed to execute a trial are available and then follows up with procurement and scheduling. It also tracks how the material and employee hours are used.
