A new article from Healthing.ca spotlights how CanReview is helping to overcome long-standing provincial barriers to clinical trials by enabling a single research ethics review for multi-site studies across Canada. CanReview leverages Clinical Trials Ontario’s (CTO) Stream platform to support efficient and coordinated ethics review processes for participating research ethics boards and institutions. This approach helps reduce duplication, accelerate start-up times, and improve patient access to research.
The article features insights from Maureen Smith, a member of CTO’s College of Lived Experience, who highlights the important role CanReview plays in improving access to clinical trials and advancing health research for patients across the country.
CanReview reflects Clinical Trials Ontario’s ongoing commitment to supporting efficient, high-quality, and patient-centred clinical trials in partnership with research institutions, ethics boards, sponsors, and communities across Canada.
