Support for Clinical Trial Research

Arjo is committed to supporting clinical trial research related to the company’s product portfolio. We recognise the importance of clinical trial research, both in benefits to possible improvements in patient care and in caregivers environment. We aim to provide responsible support. Due to finite resources and regulatory requirements, not every proposal will receive support.

Who can apply?

Grants for clinical trial research are awarded to a requestors institution that aims to conduct the Arjo-approved clinical trial.

 

Types of support or funding:

Support may come as monetary funding or the lending of Arjo’s medical devices. Technical support may also be provided. If a request trial grant is awarded, a contract will be created stipulating the terms and the support granted.

What should I expect?

  • For an application to be considered it must be completed with all requested information, in English. An incomplete application will be delayed and may be denied.
  • Funding decisions are at the sole discretion of Arjo and are final. Each application will be sent to the global medical affairs department at Arjo for alignment with budget considerations before final review.
  • Approval decisions may take up to three months and applicants will be informed immediately.
  • If support is denied for compliance purposes, the requestor may be contacted to determine if the compliance issue can be resolved to align with Arjo’s criteria for support prior to the final decision being taken.
  • If a clinical trial research grant is awarded, the requesting institution will be required to enter into a written agreement (provided by Arjo) in order for funds or equipment to be released to the authorized signer of the requestor. The requestor should be willing to assume all sponsor obligations as laid out in applicable clinical research regulations and standards.
