Why did we establish ClinLife?

ClinLife was launched with the aim to improve the premises for the conduction of clinical trials in Europe, the US, Canada, and Asia, and to speed up the development of new, safer medications. We were especially motivated by the following factors:

  • Delays: Around 80% of all clinical trials conducted worldwide are delayed from the outset due to a lack of volunteers. Delays increase the amount of time the public has to wait for new, more effective treatments.

  • No listing: Up until the year 2006, not one comprehensive, up-to-date register for clinical research trials had existed. Since then, ClinLife has become the largest clinical trial community in Europe and has expanded to the U.S., Canada and Asia.

  • Low participation: Many studies conducted in Europe and the U.S. have revealed that even though the majority of adults are aware of clinical trials and consider participation as potentially beneficial to their health, less than 10% have actually ever participated in a clinical trial.

  • Insufficient publication: The large gap between awareness and participation indicates the need to publish clinical trials and inform the public.

  • Poor public perception: Only 25% believe that trial volunteers receive honest and accurate information, while 75% believe they would be treated like "guinea pigs".

  • High demand: The amount of volunteers required for clinical trials is increasing. The required number of volunteers needed during the clinical trial phases prior to getting a new drug approved has risen 50% over the last 20 years.

Taking globalization and easier Internet access into account, it only seems natural to use a publicly accessible portal in the World Wide Web to inform the public and to increase participation in clinical research. Based on this idea, ClinLife was launched in 2005. It is our priority to provide the public with free, tranparent access to trials and with up-to-date information. ClinLife is financed by the conductors of clinical trials, and with this arrangement, all parties benefit.

  • Interested patients may find clinical trials that offer new treatment methods for their ailments. They have the possibility to gather vital information anonymously and without any obligations.

  • Sponsors and clinical research centres gain direct access to new potential trial participants. They can now recruit the necessary amount of participants within their given time frame. Conclusion: Both parties profit from timely approvals and rejections of new drugs and medical devices.

  • Patients receive an accelerated access to effective new therapies and treatments!

  • Sponsors can minimize their costs by saving time finding potential participants!
