COMBACTE’s hospital and laboratory networks, CLIN-Net and LAB-Net, represent the vital foundation on which COMBACTE and non-COMBACTE clinical trials have been performed over the years. These networks continue their work within Ecraid (European Clinical Research Alliance on Infectious Diseases), as it builds a sustainable and joint European movement against infectious diseases.
