Independent Scientific Research

Investigator Sponsored Trials

Jazz Pharmaceuticals are developing life-changing medicines for people with rare disease – often with limited or no therapeutic options. This commitment is supported not only through Jazz’s own clinical studies, but also by supporting external independent investigators, organizations, and institutions (academic, private, or governmental) who approach Jazz looking for support for their scientific research proposals where they will serve as the study sponsor. We refer to this research as Investigator Sponsored Trials (IST). Support by Jazz can take the form of funding, study drug, or a combination of both; support must be disclosed.

Jazz only supports study proposals that have a legitimate scientific purpose and take into account the importance of the study objectives to medical science and patient care and the ability of the study sponsor to deliver a high-quality, ethical study. Jazz does not support studies as a reward to healthcare professionals for using, purchasing, recommending, or prescribing Jazz products or to persuade them to do so by supporting the proposed research. Please note that submission of a proposal does not imply or guarantee approval.
