Clinical Trial Information

Clinical trials are health-related research studies sponsored or funded by a variety of organizations or individuals including physicians, medical institutions, foundations, volunteer groups, pharmaceutical companies and, in some cases, federal agencies such as the National Institutes of Health, Department of Defense and Department of Veteran’s Affairs.

Working closely with pharmaceutical sponsors, The Research Group of Lexington, LLC (aka TRG) conducts trials under the supervision of appropriate regulatory authorities.

The Research Group of Lexington provides patients and the community as a whole with the most up-to-date information on new therapies and state-of-the-art patient care.

Participants in clinical trials are performing a service to their communities and to mankind as a whole by contributing in a meaningful way to medical research.

Additionally, participation enables a patient to play an active role in his or her own health care. Patients often gain access to new research therapies before they become widely available and, of course, they receive expert care from one of Central Kentucky’s leading medical practices.

There are no fees related to clinical trials, and participants often receive reimbursement for some expenses.
