Novel Clinical Trials Program
Driving innovative research to transform novel ideas to better human life
The research community across CU Anschutz performs hundreds of clinical trials in a broad range of research fields – all crucial to answering difficult scientific and health questions. This can lead to the development of new and enhanced drugs and treatments.
The Novel Clinical Trials Program strives to provide the necessary expertise and resources to expand the research infrastructure to support new and innovative study designs beyond the traditional trial sites.
This is a catalog of research resources and services available at CU Anschutz, through our partner institutions, and through external organizations who can help plan and conduct decentralized clinical trials (DCTs). The catalog includes a wide variety of resources that are relevant to the operationalization and implementation of DCTs. To use this tool, filter or sort the resources by category or cost, and click any card to view full details and links.
