Sydney Haematology & Oncology Clinic's Clinical Trials Unit (SHOC CTU)

The Clinical Trials Unit is a not for profit organisation that is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Sydney Adventist Hospital. We are made up of a team of Medical Oncologists, Clinical Trial Coordinator’s, Clinical Trial Pharmacists and experienced Oncology Nurses. We are located on Level 1 of the Clinical Services Building at the Sydney Adventist Hospital Campus, near both the Visitors and San Clinic car parks.

The Sydney Haematology and Oncology Clinic's first participation in clinical trials commenced in 2005 at our Palmerston Road premises. We are now a well established and respected Clinical Trials Unit and have participated in more than 50 clinical trials.

The purpose of the unit is to provide all Oncology patients treated at Sydney Adventist Hospital the best possible treatment outcomes through offering them the opportunity and ability to participate in the most current treatment options available in the field of medical oncology.

Trial Management is performed by a collaborative group of Doctors, Nurses, Pharmacy, Pathology and Radiology staff and is coordinated by experienced Clinical Trial Coordinators. Treatments are either delivered in the San Day Infusion Centre or as outpatient treatments.

We offer clinical trial participation in multi centre, national and international clinical trials run by Pharmaceutical Companies and National collaborative groups such as: Australasian Gastro Intestinal Trials Group (AGITG), the ANZ Gynaecology / Oncology Group (ANZGOG) along with the ANZ Breast Cancer Trials Group (ANZBCTG).
