Through the Personalized Support Service, our qualified staff conducts searches for available clinical trials based on requested criteria, and this service is free of charge. The results of this search, presented in the form of a report, allow patients and health professionals to initiate or facilitate discussions regarding a potential participation in a clinical trial. The team of health professionals at Clinical Trials Quebec provides support in finding clinical trials; however, the decision to participate in a trial must come entirely from the patient, following a discussion with their health care provider.
We assist health professionals in finding available clinical trials for their patients, in a simple, quick and confidential manner. Upon request, Clinical Trials Quebec will conduct an extensive search of available clinical trials according to the required clinical criteria.
Contact our team by phone, by email or by completing our online request form. After obtaining your consent, one of our agents compiles the information and begins the search for clinical trials based on your criteria.
Our team of professionals conducts a personalized search for clinical trials that meet the requested criteria. They then contact the research sites to confirm their recruitment status, to specify some additional eligibility criteria, and to verify the sites’ accessibility options.
A preliminary report containing the identified clinical trials is sent within three business days of the request. A final report is then provided once all additional information has been collected from the research sites.
It is essential for the patient and family to discuss the search report with their treating team to determine whether clinical research is to be considered and to identify which clinical trial would be suitable for the patient.
Since there is a possibility that no clinical trials meet your search criteria, you can sign up for our Continuous Search Service to receive an update if some clinical trials become available. A new request can also be initiated if your search criteria change.
Dans le cadre du projet pilote du service d’accompagnement personnalisé, Recherche clinique Québec procède à une révision et à une traduction libre des informations fournies par les équipes de recherche et rendues publiques sur des plateformes de recherche d’essais cliniques reconnues par la communauté médicale, mais n’en évalue pas le contenu scientifique. Certaines informations peuvent être disponibles en anglais uniquement. Recherche clinique Québec n’est pas impliquée dans les processus d’évaluation scientifique et éthique des projets de recherche ni dans le référencement des patients aux équipes de recherche. Avant de participer à une étude clinique, il est important pour un patient d’en connaître les bénéfices et les risques et d’en discuter avec un professionnel de la santé. La participation au projet pilote est volontaire, et une personne désirant cesser sa participation peut le faire en tout temps en contactant l’équipe au contact@clinicaltrialsquebec.com
