She added that volunteers will be able to apply to the clinical trial registry to be provided full details about all trials.
"As soon as approval is received, which is by order of the Ministry of Health, all information about clinical trials becomes immediately available. The study considers clinical centers with executive researchers in the following cities: several centers in Kyiv, several centers in Vinnytsia, Lviv, and Ivano-Frankovsk. I think that these will be the nearest points of the region, but we expect more clinical trials in Ukraine, since Ukrainian researchers are experts are globally acclaimed in conducting clinical trials," Dumenko summed up.
