Dedicated to Diversity and Inclusion
Over 20K Participants
Multiculturalism and inclusion are important concepts here at K2. We understand the significance of representation of all populations in clinical research and are aware of the current lack of diversity in trial participants. We endeavor to change this. We reject a set-it and forget-it mentality when it comes to equity and justice; instead, we aim to use these ideas as living, working concepts that inform our daily interactions with one another, with patients and with the community at large. Find out more about what we are doing to promote diversity in our clinical trials.
Clinical Research as a Care Option
Clinical Research as a Care Option (CRAACO) is a concept that is revolutionizing health care as we know it. Considering the use of clinical trials as a tool to supplement and/or replace conventional healthcare is a radical notion, but one that stands to benefit patients, physicians, and the research community as a whole. Some of these benefits include faster drug development, and for patients, a more cost-effective approach with better treatment outcomes. Here at K2 Medical Research, we are fully onboard and are collaborating with local practices to help make this innovative idea a reality for our patients. While traditional healthcare presents many well-known challenges to patients seeking treatment, participating in a clinical research trial offers many practical solutions. By participating in a research study with K2, participants can expect to:
- Receive an unsurpassed standard of care with our experienced physicians.
- Be proactive in their own health.
- Receive innovative treatments not yet available at in-patient healthcare offices.
- Participate in improving the health of future generations.
- Be compensated for time and travel.

Innovative translational research uses biomarkers to accelerate or aid in diagnosis or monitoring and provide insight into “personalized” medicine. A biomarker is a quantifiable biological parameter (such as blood pressure, heart rate, blood and genetic test, and x-rays) that are measured and evaluated over time as an indicator of normal biological, pathogenic, or pharmacologic responses to a therapeutic intervention.
Nutrition studies the relationship between foods and its effect on an individual's health. Nutrition considers topics such as obesity, malnutrition, food insecurity and nutritional deficiencies.
