Surrey Clinical Trials Unit
Surrey Clinical Trials Unit (CTU) is an academic trials unit that has the experience, expertise and infrastructure to develop, organise and manage high-quality, multi-centre, randomised controlled trials (including trials of investigational medicinal products) of national and international importance.
What we do
Surrey CTU has proven expertise in trial design and management in disease areas such as
- Cancer
- Gastroenterology
- Palliative care
- Endocrinology.
We support trials at all phases from first in human (FIH) through to large-scale pragmatic trials, as well as trials of complex interventions, including in digital health and underpinned by artificial intelligence.
Surrey CTU is located in the Clinical Research Building, home to a number of synergistic units committed to excellence in clinical research and digital health innovation. Surrey CTU works closely with the Surrey Hub of the NIHR Research Design Service South East (RDS SE) and Surrey Health Economics Centre (SHEC) to offer support and advice on funding applications and all aspects of study design and methodology, including health economic evaluation and trial management and delivery.
Capabilities
We work with clinical academics across the Kent, Surrey and Sussex region to design, co-ordinate, manage and disseminate UK and Europe-wide multi-centre, interventional clinical trials.
