Leading Clinical Research Organisation in Australia
Linear Clinical Research is a life-science organisation at the forefront of world-leading human clinical trials. Based in Western Australia, we’re dedicated to advancing global health by helping bring new treatments to life through safe, ethical, and innovative research.
Who We Are
Over a Decade of Contributing to Human Breakthroughs in WA
Founded in 2010 by the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research, in collaboration with the WA Departments of Health and Commerce, Linear Clinical Research was created to bridge the gap between discovery and delivery. Over the years, thousands of volunteers and patients have joined us to test life-changing medical therapies, advancing knowledge and improving health outcomes across the world.
Volunteers are in safe hands
Linear has conducted more than 500 clinical trials, including first-in-human, early-phase, oncology, and haematology studies, all delivered under the highest standards of safety and care.
Power to change lives
Each study we run brings us closer to new treatments that improve or save lives. Our work helps scientists and clinicians understand how medicines behave in the body, turning innovation into evidence.
We provide hope to families
Our trials give patients facing serious conditions access to potentially ground-breaking therapies and supportive care from expert teams. For many, participating means being part of something bigger, helping shape the future of medicine.
Our Vision
We’re part of a global mission to advance human health through access to innovative medical therapies. Our goal is to improve the quality of life for people everywhere by making scientific progress accessible, ethical, and impactful.
