Welcome to our Clinical Studies section
Clinical studies involving healthy volunteers and patients play a vital role in the development of new drugs. These studies are conducted to ensure that all investigational drugs are safe and effective. Over recent years, along with drug discovery, drug development and clinical studies have benefitted from scientific and technological advancements as well as a greater understanding of the needs clinical study participants have.
At UCB we’ve moved away from seeing patients as just patients. By really listening and engaging with them as partners we are striving for greater understanding of their needs or ways to improve our clinical studies. To improve and accelerate development, we will keep patients’ needs front and center, leverage new technologies, and adaptive clinical study design to improve the patient experience.
Diversification of clinical trials is critical, and UCB is working to increase representation and inclusion of underrepresented patient populations through digital and data-driven approaches as well as connecting directly to patient communities. We are committed to working toward a clinical trials infrastructure that addresses health disparities and closes the gap in clinical trial diversity to better reflect the intended treatment population. We continue our work to identify best practices around key drivers such as scientific rigor, informing innovation, and addressing health inequities in clinical trials now and into the future.

and those same people don't realise that they, too, could be at risk.
