IDEA WHOSE TIME HAS COME: WHY CARE CT?
A Brief History
CareCt Clinical Trials group was founded in 2023 and officially incorporated as a SEC registered research group in the same year. It has a 5 man governing board under its Founder and CEO Prof Charles Yu who retired from more than 35 years of academic and research work at the De La Salle University Medical Center. It started its first year with 8 projects in its portfolio ranging from small to large flu vaccine trials, TB vaccines (Biontech and Quratis), a COPD study , a TB Alliance TB study , a TB preventive trial among diabetics among others.
It started its clinical trials by retrofitting an office within the Elijah hotel and condo complex commercial areas and eventually designed and completed a new site occupying 500 square meters with an expansion areas of 1000 square meters. The CareCT complex was designed by its own team with elements of comfort and enabling working environment that would be a second home to study subjects. It is an all in one, one stop center equipped with the state-of -the art Starlink internet connections to provide seamless connections, 24 hour enabled AI monitoring of its pharmacy storage, even a massage chair, cappuccino machines, colorful aquarium and conference /meeting rooms, secure informed consent and examination centers, a fully equipped pharmacy and laboratory. Its complement of talented research teams are composed of seasoned research scientists and clinicians, nurses, pharmacists, med techs, encoders, data analysts, study coordinators who together have been with Prof Yu for the last 30 years. Indeed the decades of experience and challenges esp during the covid times have molded the CareCT team to become the world-class group that it is today. Some of its studies boast of the highest retention rates in the most difficult studies.
