but all involve informed consent, ongoing communication and participant safety.
Your Participation Journey
Every study is different, but most follow a similar journey.
Tell us you’re interested in a study or join our participant registry to hear about future research opportunities.
We’ll review your information to see whether you may be suitable for a study.
You’ll receive information about the study and have the opportunity to ask questions before deciding whether to take part.
If you decide to continue, you’ll complete the informed consent process before any study procedures begin.
If you join the study, you’ll attend visits as required by the study. Appointments may take place in hospitals, Visit Centres or both.
We’ll stay in contact throughout the study and provide any information or support you may need.
Your Choice
Taking part in clinical research is always your decision. Registering your interest does not mean you have to participate. You’ll have time to review the study information, ask questions and decide whether participation is right for you.
Participant Safety
Participant safety is the highest priority in every clinical research study.
Before taking part, you’ll receive clear information about the study and have the opportunity to ask questions before making your decision.
Your personal information is managed in accordance with applicable privacy and data protection requirements.
Step-by-Step Participation Journey
Every study follows its own protocol and eligibility requirements. However, most participation journeys follow a similar pathway.
Individuals can express interest in a research study or join the Orizzonte Research Registry for future opportunities.
Information provided is reviewed against study-specific requirements to determine whether a study may be suitable.
Potential participants receive information about the study and have the opportunity to discuss any questions with the research team.
Participation decisions are made only after receiving study information and completing the informed consent process.
Participants attend study visits as required by the protocol. Depending on the study, visits may take place within Visit Centres, hospitals, or other healthcare settings.
Research teams maintain communication throughout the study and provide guidance regarding ongoing participation requirements.
After treatment, we’ll stay in touch to check how you’re doing. This might include phone calls or in-person check-ins.
Once the study ends, you’ll return to standard care. You may be updated on the results, and your participation will have helped improve future healthcare.
Participation Decisions
Registering interest in a study does not create any obligation to participate. Participation remains voluntary throughout the process and follows informed consent discussions designed to support participant understanding and decision-making. Individuals are encouraged to ask questions and consider study information carefully before deciding whether participation is right for them.
Research Pathways Differ Between Studies
Clinical research studies vary significantly depending on their objectives, procedures, and participant requirements. Some studies may involve specialist hospital-based procedures, while others may be delivered through community healthcare environments and Visit Centres. Study schedules, visit requirements, and participation commitments differ between individual studies.
How Orizzonte Supports Participation
Orizzonte operates clinical research infrastructure through a network of GP-integrated Visit Centres. The model supports:
Participant communication pathways
Study coordination
Research operations across multiple locations
Sponsor and CRO collaboration
Governance and quality frameworks
Clinical teams support participants within familiar healthcare environments, while operational management helps maintain consistency across the network.

Participation Process
Taking part in a clinical trial is a guided process. From your first conversation with your GP to the final follow-up, each step is designed to ensure your safety, comfort, and understanding. Here’s how it works:
If you’re interested in research, your GP can check if a study is available at your practice. Orizzonte works with GPs to identify patients who might be eligible based on their health records.
A member of the research team will explain the purpose of the trial, what’s involved, and what to expect. You can take time to consider whether it’s right for you.
You’ll only join if you decide to. Before anything starts, you’ll sign an informed consent form after discussing your rights and responsibilities. It’s your choice.
We’ll do some basic checks (e.g. medical history, lab tests) to confirm if you meet the criteria for the study.
If eligible, you’ll officially join the study. Depending on the design, you may be randomly assigned to a treatment or comparison group (such as a placebo).
You’ll attend scheduled appointments—often at your usual GP surgery. Our research team will carry out the necessary procedures and support you throughout.
After treatment, we’ll stay in touch to check how you’re doing. This might include phone calls or in-person check-ins.
Once the study ends, you’ll return to standard care. You may be updated on the results, and your participation will have helped improve future healthcare.
