Canterbury Respiratory Research Group Delivering quality commercial and non commercial clinical trials for Respiratory conditions includin

The research activities of the CDHB Respiratory Department are supported by CRRG. Whilst the regulatory processes involved in undertaking research may seem daunting for those unused to the process, the expertise available to the department allows rapid and easy generation of high quality research. With ever more of clinical practice being research-driven, the ability to generate locally applicable good-quality research in respiratory medicine is a high priority for Canterbury Respiratory Services. On a regular basis, Research Fellows, Masters, and Summer students undertake research projects with the Group. The CRRG also collaborates with University of Otago, and University of Canterbury staff, other institutions and industry nationally and internationally.

Do you suffer from COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)?
We are looking for volunteers to participate in a clinical trial exploring an investigational add-on treatment that is given by injection. The safety and effectiveness of this potential new therapy are being examined.
If you are aged 40-90, have COPD, and prescribed a combination of inhalers to use every day and have had two or more flare up within the past 2 years that required treatment, you may qualify to take part in this study.
For more information, message us or call 364-1157 to speak with one of our team.
