Clinical trials
Through our Clinical Trials Accelerator Platform (CTAP), we support clinical trials in the UK by:
- creating a network of CTAP centres to run CF clinical trials
- funding a national team of CF trial coordinators
- supporting pharmaceutical companies and universities to run trials in the UK
- involving people with CF in the planning and design of clinical trials
- creating an online hub of information about trials, why they happen and how to take part.
Our aim is to make it possible for a wide variety of CF clinical trials to open in the UK, to help more people with CF to take part in trials and through this, speed up the development of new treatments.
