Local CT HUBs

is a network of clinical sites collaborating on non-commercial clinical trials, which currently includes 18 institutions in the Czech Republic.

Local CTU HUBs (CTU) are involved in the planning and implementation of non-commercial clinical trials. It provides activities related to direct access to patients (trial subjects) – ensuring optimal recruitment of subjects for clinical trials. It also participates in the solution of specific activities of clinical trials projects implemented with the support of VVI CZECRIN through the Clinical Research Coordinator, thus fulfilling the basic need for researchers in the Czech Republic.

Clinical trials

non-commercial type form an important part of clinical research in the Czech Republic. Thanks to the CZECRIN infrastructure and the network of Local CTU HUBs, research teams from different healthcare institutions can systematically collaborate, share expertise and conduct clinical trials according to international standards.

Below, you will find an overview of studies that have been created or are ongoing with the support of our infrastructure – from protocol development and regulatory documentation to patient recruitment, center coordination and quality management. For each study, we list its field, phase, design type, and current status so that you can easily get an overview of its progress.
