Clinic Research Support Unit

Clinic researches on cancer, are the most significant sources of information for preventing cancer or for minimizing the cancer related health problems, as in all other medical branches. These researches are practiced occasionally on the basis of preventing cancer in healthy individuals and from time to time for healing the cancer patients or for making the disease a common problem that can be lived together. Several researches are able to bring the newly developed cancer treatments for free of charge and the cancer patients in Turkey together, at the same time with the world.

With this, the misconception in society is that the patients are used as cavies in these researches. However, any clinic research cannot be carried out without getting approval of Ethical Committee, consisted of specialized individuals who control whether the researches have qualifications to provide more benefits. By means of the studies carried out with hundreds of people, only the treatment methods which are certainly more efficient than the previously used treatments can come into clinical use.

The essentially dangerous thing which is accepted in society is the uncontrolled usage of several methods whose efficiencies have not been shown with scientific studies, even the statistics have not been kept on whether they are dangerous or not. That kind of practices are sometimes carried out by individuals who claim that they are selling health in places such as spice and plant stores, putting on a white coat although they do not have any medical training, having the only skill to sell the product with the self-confidence; and sometimes by individuals being healthcare personnel, however recommending additional plants, spices or synthetic products with a magical presentation to patients under on-going treatments, although they are not competent on those fields and commercialize the unprofitable products by appropriating the medical treatments of patients and who desire to gain fame and money briefly. For that reason, these events are interferences that are far from any health standard or supervision, based on trial and error in defiance of human life.

Since cancer is a disease which creates social and personal fear more than it deserves, especially cancer patients feel that they need these outdated interferences and they become subjects to them. Cancer medications are products that are established with knowledge and put into use after their benefits are proved by the researches of well-educated scientists. After scanning millions of molecules, spending billions of liras and researching for years, every year only a few medications are deemed to be used in human treatment and can be put into service for human. Preferring the usage of products recommended by uncompleted people, instead of medications that are developed under hard research conditions, with an unnecessary fear or hopelessness feelings, will be a great mistake for patients and individuals trying to protect themselves from cancer.

The unit within the division was established with the aim of supporting this kind of researches to be carried out with high-quality in our country. You can contact our subdivision to obtain information on conducted researches by dialing +90 (312) 305 43 30.
