THE RESEARCH TEAM

We strive to leave no patient behind.



What Is Clinical Research?

All pharmaceutical medicines require a lengthy process of review before being approved by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) for human use. This process can take many years as studies progress through the “phases." As opposed to “pre-clinical," the research is considered “clinical” once humans are included. Apex Dermatology’s Clinical Research Center partners with pharmaceutical companies to study the effectiveness and safety of newer dermatologic therapies. We aim to work with participants to advance medical treatments!
