Research Trials
Shaping the Future of Neurology—Together.
Partnering with Patients to Transform Neurology
Premier Neurology has been leading neurological research in the Upstate, SC area since 2017
Due to the extensive research experience of Dr. Mary Hughes, Premier Neurology is the only practice in South Carolina involved in many critical neurological research trials. Dr. Hughes has been closely involved in groundbreaking neurological research, leading to new FDA approvals for medications like subcutaneous Ocrevus®.
We pride ourselves on being able to offer our patients cutting-edge options for treatments and care. By opening the opportunity to participate in research trials, our patients can contribute to medical advancements while receiving close monitoring and early access to promising new treatments.
Benefits of Participating in a Research Trial
- Early access to pioneering treatments not yet publically available
- Focused medical support and monitoring from our clinical Research Team
- Contribute to the development of new therapies for others living with neurological conditions
- Participation in trials alleviates the cost of disease management as many trials cover the cost of medications and care
