The goal of healthcare is to achieve a cure for diseases and a better quality of life for patients. Investing in research is important, but so is having specialized professionals"

Increased investment in research in the healthcare field to improve the quality of life of patients means that more and more professionals specialized in this field are needed. Hence the importance of expanding information in all areas of research.

This postgraduate certificate in Clinical Trials is designed to specialize professionals from different health branches in this field, an essential facet to find new treatments that allow the improvement of patients.  

In this way, the essential concepts to support the methodological and semantic complexity of clinical trials are addressed. As such, the categories according to which clinical trials are classified are established in order to delve into different types of Clinical Trials, such as Phase I trials, due to their great complexity, and post-marketing research of investigational products, due to their enormous involvement in pharmacovigilance processes. 

On the other hand, investigational drug samples are a critical point in the sequence of activities to be performed in the clinical trial. Therefore, to ensure that clinical trials are conducted according to ethical, legal and good clinical practice standards, it is necessary to establish a special sample control system that allows the use of samples according to the contents of the trial protocol.  
It should be noted that, within the clinical trial process, the figure of the pharmacists is of great importance, since they perform a series of essential tasks and responsibilities that guarantee the quality of the investigational drug samples.

Furthermore, in relation to Urology and, more specifically, to Uro-Oncology, the development of new drugs, with scientific evidence, has benefited a very large population of patients with tumor pathologies, especially prostate and bladder pathologies, and has provided them with a better quality of life and prognosis. As a result, it offers professionals a range of therapeutic possibilities with better management of adverse effects and improved life expectancy.

All of the above makes this postgraduate certificate one of the most up-to-date and complete on the market, and offers the healthcare professional a general overview of clinical trials, but with special and particular cases in which these investigations have proved to be extremely important and beneficial.
