Clinical Research

The Vancouver Prostate Centre’s clinical trials are conducted in close partnership with BC Cancer, national and international clinical trials networks, and industry partners. These networks serve to enhance enrollment in our clinical trials, while the structure of the Canadian medical system and centralized treatment centres such as ours mean that patient follow-up information is closely tracked.

 By combining the genitourinary research programs at the Vancouver Prostate Centre and BC Cancer, clinical trial patients can participate in a full range of investigational studies.
