List several benefits of conducting private office research as opposed to clinical trials in an academic medical setting


The costs of conducting "community-based" research are less than the same trials in an academic medical center. In addition, the research organizations conducting the trials for the pharmaceutical companies are able to produce results more quickly than an academic medical center. Additional benefits are (1) adding a level of continuity and personal contact to the process; (2) providing an enormous pool of potential research subjects; and (3) bringing clinical research into the private office allows patients and their physicians access to current and scientifically advanced therapies.
