Centers for Clinical Sciences Research


The Centers for Clinical Sciences Research is an experienced team dedicated to providing superior patient care and clinical trial performance. The Centers are experienced in conducting Phase II-IV clinical trials evaluating a myriad of therapeutic areas. They give area patients access to investigational drugs, innovative procedures, and new therapies, reducing their need to travel outside West Virginia for care.

Some highlights of the Centers are:

Research staff is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for protocol-specific patient care.
Complete adherence to FDA regulations
Protocol adherence
In full compliance with GCPs and GLPs
Complete set of SOPs
Our clinical investigators are board-certified and our organization is well-versed in FDA regulations and guidelines
Secured investigational drug service space and drug storage
Secured storage space for case report forms and other study-related documents
Computerized patient database
CLIA- and CAP-approved laboratory (CAMC)


The CAMC Health Education and Research Institute is a subsidiary of CAMC, Inc., giving access to a large managed care population. CAMC, Inc., includes hospitals, primary care facilities, subspecialty practices, a university affiliation, a children’s hospital, nursing homes, and a home health agency. We can provide virtually any patient population in a variety of settings. Because of our affiliation with Charleston Area Medical Center, we have access to over 550 physicians and surgeons.

About 80 percent of the Centers’ studies come from industry or cooperative groups, including the National Cancer Institute’s network affiliates. The remaining 20 percent are generated by local investigators. The Centers are involved in many national, multicenter studies.

West Virginia statistics indicate that the state’s rates of heart disease and stroke mortality have been higher than the national average for the past three decades, and the gap between the state and nation continues to widen. Helping CAMC reduce these dismal statistics is central to the Centers’ mission. Recent efforts aimed at reducing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality have attracted studies on reducing restenosis rates after angioplasty and treating patients with unstable angina.
