The Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) Clinical Trials Activity Initiative, aims to boost clinical trial activity with Australia, enhancing the evidence base for clinical care and providing patients with access to trials that are crucial for their health needs. Additionally, it enables researchers to bring international trials to Australian patients.

The MRFF Clinical Trials Activity Initiative offers grants to support medical research and innovation projects that:

• Promote Australian Involvement: Foster international collaborative investigator-initiated clinical trials by establishing and coordinating clinical trial sites in Australia.

• Provide High-Quality Evidence: Generate robust evidence on the effectiveness of novel health treatments, drugs, or devices in 'usual care' settings, aiding decisions on their implementation in Australia.
