What We Do

Clinical Trials Center of Middle Tennessee was established in 2019 by Alex Slandzicki, M.D., and Aaron Milstone, M.D., who bring more than 50 years of combined clinical research experience. As a physician-led research center, we are committed to maintaining high standards of care, experienced oversight, and active investigator involvement throughout each study.

We partner with sponsors and research organizations to conduct clinical studies evaluating potential treatment options across a range of disease states. Our focus includes pulmonary trials such as asthma, COPD, pulmonary fibrosis, and bronchiectasis, with expansion into additional therapeutic areas and specialties, including diabetes and obesity.

The Difference Our Trials Make

Patients take part in research for many reasons, and we are grateful for the trust they place in our team and the role they play in advancing care.

“I was in a pretty bad state in March 2024—constant coughing and multiple nebulizers. I decided to try a research drug with the Clinical Trials Center of Middle Tennessee, and it was the best decision of my life. The team is amazing, and I haven’t had a cough in over a year. I can take long walks again.”

“Dr. Milstone and Sarah at CTC are exceptional. I’ve never felt this level of hope and support in managing my pulmonary fibrosis. I’ve been told my life expectancy is significantly longer as a result of participating in this trial, and for the first time, I no longer feel like I have a death sentence.”
