A recent Healthing.ca article highlights how CanReview is breaking down provincial barriers to clinical trials by supporting a single research ethics review for multi-site studies nationwide. Leveraging the Stream platform, CanReview enables efficient and coordinated ethics review processes for participating research ethics boards and institutions, helping to reduce duplication, speed up trial start-up times, and improve patient access to innovative treatments.
The article features Maureen Smith, a patient advocate who shares her perspective on the positive impact CanReview is having on patients and health research across Canada. As the piece emphasizes, it’s not about shortcuts — it’s about a centralized system that will ensure the highest ethical and quality standards while advancing inclusive, timely, and high-quality research.
