Clinical Trials

Translating research breakthroughs into more effective treatments remains one of UM/Sylvester’s highest priorities. Clinical trials (also known as research studies) are used to answer specific questions about new therapies or new ways of using known therapies. They allow patients to participate in the newest treatments in development.

UM/Sylvester conducts more clinical research than any other institution in
South Florida, and currently has a wide range of trials in place with more
than 250 underway.

To search for clinical trials by diagnosis or to participate in UM/Sylvester’s Clinical Trial Matching Service, click here or call 1-866-574-5124 between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time (except holidays).
