We perform research on efficacy, cost-effectiveness, and technologies to improve existing and establish new screening programmes.

Our portfolio of both secondary (hospital) and primary (community) care trials includes:

• Multi-centre international randomised controlled trials of medicinal prevention of cancer often using drug repurposing
• Pragmatic trials of screening and diagnostic interventions
• Trials of behavioural interventions in cancer prevention and screening
• Trials of diagnostic/screening devices.

About the role:

We are looking for an enthusiastic individual with experience in clinical trials administration/data management or coordination to join the CPTU as a Junior Clinical Trials Monitor to assist with central source data review and other monitoring activities for an exciting early detection trial.

You will be one of two Junior Clinical Trial Monitors working with the main Clinical Trial Monitor for the NHS-Galleri trial, which is a clinical trial of a new multi-cancer early detection blood test. The CPTU is working with GRAIL Bio UK Ltd, NHS England and NHS Improvement to carry out this trial.

Over 700,000 people across England have been invited to receive a novel CE-marked, blood test for the presence of over 50 cancers.

This post will be based at the CPTU offices in KCL’s Guy’s Campus at London Bridge, and remotely in a hybrid working model (40-60%), but the post holder will also be required to travel to other national sites regularly.

You will:

• Be primarily responsible for delivering centrally reviewed source data verification and quality checks of informed consent forms and sample accountability logs
• Ensure full tracking and reporting of central data review progress
• Assist with some on site monitoring activities (on average one visit per month) across multiple regions in England, related to protocol and ICH-GCP compliance, human tissue and data collection and processing
• Ensure compliance to research and other applicable regulations and good practices, and assist in deviations management where required

You will report to the CPTU Operations Manager (Compliance) and the NHS Galleri Clinical Trial Monitor, and work closely with the wider NHS-Galleri project team including the Clinical Project Manager, Trial Manager and Research Nurses. You will also work in close coordination with GRAIL Bio UK and other key stakeholders. Travel to different sites in England will be expected on a monthly basis.
