Clinical trials are an essential step in the successful development of any innovative treatment that benefits our society. Yet few people understand their importance. This is why CATALIS Quebec is proud to have coordinated the development of Clinical Trials Quebec (CTQ), a brand-new information and services hub for all things clinical research.

CTQ is the culmination of a unique, collaborative effort by the CATALIS Network. We would like to thank the ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux du Québec (MSSS), the ministère de l'Économie, de l'Innovation et de l'Énergie (MEIE), Health Canada, the Institut national d'excellence en santé et en services sociaux (INESSS), the institutions of the Quebec healthcare network, patient associations and patient partners, and every other member of the CATALIS Network, who contributed to creating this groundbreaking provincial tool.

Intuitive Tools for Understanding the Clinical Trials Regulatory Process

The clinical research regularory process is essential to guarantee participants' safety and the validity of results. The regulatory process also serves to ensure that new medical treatments and medical advances meet the highest standards of ethics and quality. CTQ has worked with Health Canada and the Institut national d'excellence en santé et en services sociaux (INESSS) to develop materials explaining the main steps involved in developing a new drug. To help everyone understand the content of the website, CTQ also offers a glossary of complex medical terms.
