Seeking partners to help us further advancements in medical care
HealthCare Partners Medical Group has a long history of conducting clinical trials. Dr. Robert Margolis, now Chief Executive Officer, began the drug research program in 1982. In 1984, the program was expanded into a full-fledged clinical research program.
The basis for our continued commitment to clinical research is as follows:
- Past experience with clinical trials – 14 years experience
- Concentrated patient population – more than 500,000 lives in the greater Los Angeles area
- Access a demographically diverse patient base – Hispanics, Asians, Afro-Americans
- Employed and contracted primary care and specialty physician representation
- Extensive electronic databases - for patient identification and recruitment
- Trend for study sponsors to conduct research within medical group/managed care
The members of the Clinical Research team are dedicated, experienced and highly motivated individuals whose primary goal is to offer the advantages of participating in a research study to our patients. They understand that it is of major importance to uphold the highest standard of care and adherence to the dictates of each study protocol and to conduct the study according to Good Clinical Practice. The Clinical Research team has complete corporate support of our top management that will insure the success of our clinical research program.
By enrolling our patients in trials of new medications or new uses for available medications, we are able to add to the pool of data on safe and effective ways to manage disease. Some of the areas our clinical trials have addressed are:
- Allergy
- Men’s health
- Asthma
- Migraines/headaches
