The COVID-19 epidemic has had a strong impact on the entire healthcare sector in France with priority being given to research for new therapeutic options for COVID-19. Nevertheless, continuity of care for patients suffering from other diseases represents a crucial challenge, and clinical research is no exception in this respect. This study aims to assess the impact of the strict Covid-19 lockdown on non-Covid-19 clinical research in the French University Hospital of Strasbourg.
