Struggling to keep the weight off? You’re not alone and it’s not just about willpower.

At Panthera Clinic, we explore why so many people regain weight after initial success, and how clinical trials are offering real answers. From long-term study designs to medical supervision and regular support, this isn’t another “quick fix” diet. It’s research focused on sustainable weight loss that lasts and better overall health along the way.

Want to know more about how science can help maintain your results, and not just kickstart them? Read more and discover what makes clinical trials different from the usual weight-loss programmes.

If you’ve ever lost weight before, you’ll know the hardest part: keeping it off. The first few weeks can feel encouraging. Clothes fit differently. The scales

C. difficile: When a “stomach bug” becomes something far more serious.

At Panthera, we see first-hand how often C-Diff is overlooked or mistaken for a vomiting bug or routine upset stomach. But for many, especially older adults or those recently on antibiotics, it can quickly escalate into a serious infection.

Penned by two of our medical professionals, our latest article breaks down:
- What C-Diff actually is
- Why certain people are at higher risk
- And why research into better treatments has never been more important

It’s an important read for patients, carers, and anyone working in healthcare.

Every medical breakthrough starts with someone like you.

We often hear about new medicines and life-changing treatments, but did you know how much volunteers play a huge role in making them possible?

By taking part in clinical research, you’re helping shape the future of healthcare. And it’s not just about tomorrow, many volunteers also enjoy benefits today, like:

- Health checks and close medical monitoring
- Early insight into potential health concerns
- Knowing you're helping others and advancing science

At Panthera, your safety and comfort always come first. You can ask questions, take your time, and stop at any point, you’re always in control.

“Every breakthrough begins with a volunteer.” And your choice truly counts.

Curious to learn more about why people join research and how you could get involved too?

It’s not just a headache, it’s a menstrual migraine.

For millions of women, hormonal changes can trigger migraines that are more intense, longer-lasting, and harder to treat. These menstrual migraines often strike just before or during a period when the drop in oestrogen can set off debilitating pain, fatigue, and brain fog.

Despite their impact, there are still no approved treatments designed specifically for short-term prevention of menstrual migraines. That’s why research in this area is so important.

Our latest blog by Dr. Olivia Wickens and Dr. Hannah Collins explores what makes menstrual migraine unique, why it happens, and how research could help develop better treatments for women affected.

Today, our team proudly joined the Macmillan Coffee Morning, marking the 35th year of this incredible initiative by Macmillan Cancer Support.

At Panthera, our commitment to supporting people and communities goes beyond the clinic. Taking part in events like this reflects our people-first values and our dedication to causes that make a real difference to those living with cancer and other chronic illnesses.

While sharing coffee and cake is a small gesture, it’s part of a much bigger mission, our work in advancing clinical research to improve the lives of patients everywhere.

A huge thank you to everyone across Panthera who baked, brewed, and contributed to today’s event.
