About us

Clinical Trial Management and Delivery 

CHOIR leads the design and delivery of investigator-led clinical trials, providing scientific and operational oversight from study conception, protocol development through to study close-out. Embedded within an academic research environment, we work closely with investigators and clinical sites to navigate regulatory requirements, compile IRB/IEC submissions, manage risk, and support efficient trial conduct across complex and multi-site settings.

CHOIR is a member of the Australian Clinical Trials Alliance (ACTA) and in the role of a clinical trial coordinating centre, the multidisciplinary academic and professional team is equipped to assist in the management and coordination of trials.

Specialist Scientific and Operational Expertise

CHOIR specialises in interdisciplinary, patient-oriented research grounded in rigorous clinical trial methodology. Our expertise spans early-phase and developmental therapeutics in cancer, including haematological malignancies, as well as immunology and infectious diseases, with a particular emphasis on immunotherapies and host-directed treatments. We collaborate closely with investigators to deliver scientifically robust studies and actively welcome partnerships in early-phase clinical trials.

Cancer, Immunity and Health Outcome Focus

CHOIR’s focus is investigator-led research at the intersection of cancer and immunological disease, aligned with JCSMR’s two major research pillars: Cancer and Immunity, Infection and Inflammation. Our work integrates clinical trial design, biostatistics, and health economics and outcomes research to generate, robust, fundable evidence with clear public health impact. By concentrating on biologically and clinically defined questions rather than operating as a generalist CRO, CHOIR supports high-quality studies that are methodologically rigorous, competitive for national and international funding, and positioned to inform clinical practice and policy.
