Thomson Healthcare / CenterWatch
Clinical Trial Listing Service
www.centerwatch.com
The internationally recognized, award-winning
CenterWatch Clinical Trials Listing Service site
receives over 500,000 visitors each month and
is well known for its constantly growing database
of over 40,000 national and international clinical
research studies, through which patients and their
doctors can search for promising new therapies
for diseases like Cancer, Alzheimer's, and AIDS.
The service provides a link for patients to the
clinical research organizations, hospitals, academic
institutions and medical centers that are conducting
trials, and helps research centers and sponsoring
pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies in
their ongoing patient-recruitment efforts. Patients
can also enroll in the site's "patient notification
service," which automatically contacts them via
e-mail of new trials or recently approved drugs
in their area(s) of interest.
Illumina has worked closely with CenterWatch since
1995 to support its daily operations and maintenance
and provides many of the nation's leading online
healthcare portals - Acurian / Yahoo!Health, AOL,
WebMD and MedScape to name a few - with real-time
content feeds from CenterWatch's databases.
In November 2001, the site took a SILVER award
for Best Healthcare Content at the 2001 eHealthcare
Leadership Awards, "recognizing the very best
Web sites of healthcare organizations, online
health companies, pharmaceutical firms, and business
improvement initiatives."
