About us

---

Fylde Coast Clinical Research is a purpose built, Phase 3 Clinical trials unit, housed within an NHS Primary Care centre, Layton Medical Centre. An NIHR affiliate organisation within North West Coast Clinical Research Network, we are an award winning centre dedicated to embedding commercial trials within the NHS portfolio to the population of the Fylde Coast and beyond.

Our expertise lies in the recruitment, retention and excellence of delivery of clinical trials within the primary care setting. With a dedicated team of Investigators, Nurses, Practitioners and full support staff we deliver a high standard of work alongside our NHS commitments.

With an unrivalled approach, centred around high levels of PI oversight, IT systems to capture the very highest quality data, and retention initiatives, we work with sponsors to deliver research on time, on target and without error. Consistently achieving global FPFVs and exceeding recruitment targets, we are proud to be the North West’s leading primary care commercial research centre.

We have experience working with all the major pharmaceutical companies and CROs, as well as working on smaller studies for academic institutions and are part of the CPRD and RCGP research networks.
