Our clinical trials program is one of four such programs in South Florida. A Pediatric Clinical Trial is a research study that explores whether a medical strategy, treatment or device is safe and effective for children. A clinical trial utilizes patient volunteers to determine whether the new strategy, treatment or device has a positive effect on the disease in question, whether the new strategy, treatment or device is better than the current standard treatment or other available treatments, and which patients may benefit the most from the new strategy, treatment or device.
