Clinical Trials and Other Research
The Brisbane Clinic for Lymphoma, Myeloma and Leukaemia is actively involved in researching new treatments for these conditions.
Summary of Previous Research
- Clinical trials of immune therapies. These trials involved developing ways of boosting the patient's own immune system to control the cancer or leukaemia
- Australasian Leukaemia and Lymphoma Group Trials
- Major pharmaceutical companies trialing new agents at Greenslopes

Australasian Leukaemia and Lymphoma Group
Greenslopes is accredited with the ALLG for national trials of lymphoma, myeloma and leukaemia therapy. The Australasian Leukaemia and Lymphoma Group is Australia's leading not-for-profit academic organisation for the development and management of clinical trials. Some of the trials are designed in Australia by Australia's leading experts in the field. Other trials are conducted in collaboration with other major academic organisations around the world, particularly from Europe.
Pharmaceutical company trials
A vital part of the research effort into new treatments for lymphoma, myeloma and leukaemia is undertaken by large pharmaceutical companies. We have been selected by multinational pharmaceutical companies to assist in trialing new drugs that appear to have benefits in lymphoma, myeloma and leukaemia. These trials are generally large trials being conducted in leading cancer hospitals in America and Europe, as well as in Australia, but there are some smaller trials of drugs at the earliest stages of development.
