For Trial Sponsors
MS Australia’s Clinical Trials Network was established to assist the passage of better treatments for MS through clinical trials in Australia. It is the first point of call for people interested in participating in or conducting trials and for news about MS clinical research and trial activity.
The goal of the MS Australia Clinical Trials Network is to make Australia a straight forward location to conduct MS clinical trials and improve access to information and trials for people with MS.
The MS Australia Clinical Trials Network does not aim to replace direct interaction between trial sponsors and neurologists or individual trial sites. Rather, it aims to facilitate connections and enhance information flow.
