Clinical translation

Mayo Clinic is uniquely positioned not only to develop new biotherapies but also to deliver them to the patients who need them through early-stage clinical trials. The studies listed on this page demonstrate the wide range of products that the Center for Biomedical Therapeutics is manufacturing for active clinical trials to help support translation into new treatments and new hope for patients.
