Role in TherVacB
ULEI has long term experience in conduction clinical trials (phase I-IV), appropriate facilities and a well-trained staff. The university is currently involved in several translational studies and has great experience with the collection of patient materials. This includes serum, tissue and circulating blood cell (PBMC) samples, which can be collected and stored according to highest quality requirements. A special focus lies on the development of bio markers for hepatitis B virus infections. The Department of Hepatology has gained significant international reputation in the field and will contribute experience and methodology to the consortium.
ULEI has a large international network with collaborating hospitals and residents and can mobilize significant patient populations for inclusion in the clinical trials. Its experience is especially great in studies in hepatitis B, as well as in vaccine trials.
