The Connecticut Clinical Research Institute, LLC is focused on improving the quality of our patient’s health. Our mission is to provide superior cutting-edge clinical trials to make advancements in new cures. Every research study supports patient care and patient needs. Our dedicated and experienced research staff conduct clinical trials with compassion and respect for participants.
We offer our patients the opportunity to participate in clinical trials for the following:
A breakthrough endoscopy procedure can help your doctor to detect early-stage, pre-cancerous cells (also known as Barrett’s Esophagus) so they can be removed long before they can turn into esophageal cancer.
By recording the results of all of your biopsies over many years, it may be possible to find out if the brush biopsy, forceps biopsy, or both can predict which patients with heartburn develop Barrett’s esophagus, (an abnormality in the esophagus that may lead to cancer), and which patients with Barrett’s esophagus develop pre-cancer and cancer. The data from your biopsies will be used to determine the best way to diagnose esophageal disease.
