Clinical Trials
at Advocate Health Care

Welcome to Advocate Health Care's clinical trials web site. Advocate physicians and associates are committed to listening and responding to our patients' needs. That's why we have created this special site for patients who are looking for the latest in medicine and medical technology.

On this site, you'll find information about the hundreds of clinical trials being conducted at Advocate Health Care hospitals and by Advocate physician groups. Clinical trials are research studies of new medications or methods of treatment. Clinical trials are offered at many organizations, but all clinical trials are not created equal. Where you participate in a clinical trial does make a difference.

At Advocate, we don't just conduct research, we aim to advance medicine. Currently, we are conducting nearly 700 clinical trials throughout Chicagoland. Our hospitals and expert physicians, many of whom are renown in their specialty, offer appropriate patients breakthrough treatments not available through standard care options. So, if you're looking for the best that health care has to offer, or searching for answers to pressing health issues, you can rely on the health experts at Advocate Health Care.

Advocate is Chicago's largest health care system, comprised of hospitals, physician offices, a home health agency and more. Advocate is recognized as one of the nation's leading health care organizations. At Advocate, not only are we dedicated to listening and responding to the health care needs of our patients, we are dedicated to providing our patients with the most cutting edge technologies and treatments available.
