About this clinic

We are an interdisciplinary team of health professionals, and are proud to offer patient- and family-centred care to patients living with cystic fibrosis (CF).

The St. Paul’s Hospital Adult Cystic Fibrosis Program is committed to improving the quality of life and health outcomes of individuals living with CF.

We are involved in clinical studies that:

• Improve our understanding of CF lung disease and other CF-related complications
• Evaluate new investigational CF drugs
• Improve the quality of CF care delivery

By participating in research studies offered through our clinic, you are making a valuable contribution to advancing the care of CF patients. Participation in research is completely voluntary and the clinical care you receive is not affected by your decision.

CF CanACT

The Cystic Fibrosis Canada Accelerating Clinical Trials (CF CanACT) is a Canadian clinical trials network established by CF Canada. The aim is to bring new therapies and better care to Canadians with CF through participation in clinical trials. We believe that creating a positive, engaging research environment for those with CF increases participation. This will then help with facilitation and the development of new treatments for CF.

The CF CanACT network consists of CF sites across Canada and St. Paul’s Hospital is one of them. We believe in collaborative work across sites to achieve recruitment goals. We are developing a process that allows anyone with CF living in Canada to be referred to a CF CanACT site to participate in a clinical trial. Once you meet the research criteria, you can take part.

For more information on CF CanACT and a list of CF-related trials conducted in Canada, please refer to the CF Canada website.
