Investigator-initiated Clinical Trials (IICTs)
Clinical researchers pose patient-relevant scientific questions and initiate sponsor-independent clinical trials, thus making an important contribution to medical development.
We support such investigator-initiated clinical trials (IICTs) from conception to publication with a comprehensive range of experts from different disciplines providing consulting and service offers. Here, you will find information on some of the more than 160 ongoing studies that are currently supported by the DKF.
