New
Therapies Through Clinical Research
In 1928, Cleveland Clinic began operating both as a hospital
and a center for research. That alignment between research
and patient care has remained a constant and powerful guide
for the institution, yielding breakthroughs in every aspect
of the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and other medical
conditions.
Clinical research involves informed human participants and
is undertaken with their cooperation and consent. It may include
studies of new medications, tests of new technologies and
devices, or finding ways to assess the effectiveness of new
treatments and therapies.
Clinical research conducted throughout the institution generates
important advances in the diagnosis and treatment of complex
medical conditions.
