Liaisons with pharmaceutical companies

PRINTO is working with pharmaceutical companies as advisor for trials planning, centre selection, data collection, data analysis and interpretation, and data reporting. In the last few years there has been an implementation of several clinical trials in JIA with non-steroidal-anti-inflammatory-drugs and biologic agents. For more information about participation to these trials you can contact the PRINTO office.
