Martin Landray is a British physician, epidemiologist and data scientist who serves as a Professor of Medicine & Epidemiology at the University of Oxford. Landray has specialist knowledge and experience at designing, conducting and analysing large-scale randomised control trials; including practice-changing international trials that have recruited over 100,000 individuals.[1] Landray previously led the health informatics team that enabled the collection and management of data for the UK Biobank on over half a million people.[2]

Landray serves as co-chief investigator of the RECOVERY Trial into treatment drugs for COVID-19 (the largest such clinical trial in the world) alongside Peter Horby.[3][4][5] In June 2020, the trial discovered the first known life-saving COVID-19 drug, Dexamethasone.[6][7][8] The trial also showed that Tocilizumab further reduces the risk of death for the sickest patients with COVID-19.[9] The trial found that a number of other treatments had no meaningful benefits for patients hospitalised with COVID-19, including Hydroxychloroquine,[10] Lopinavir/ritonavir,[11] Azithromycin,[12] Convalescent plasma,[13][14] and Colchicine.[15] The trial continues to study REGN-COV2 and Baricitinib.[16]

He leads the Good Clinical Trial Collaborative, established by Wellcome Trust, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and African Academy of Sciences which seeks to develop and promote the adoption of international guidelines for randomised control trials. He was previously one of the leaders of the Clinical Trial Transformation Initiative's[17] risk-based monitoring,[18] quality-by-design,[19] and mobile clinical trial projects[20] and has encouraged the creation of new regulatory guidelines for clinical trials.[21]. He is founding director and chair of NHS DigiTrials[22], the Health Data Research Hub for Clinical Trials hosted by NHS Digital, and leads the clinical trials theme for Health Data Research UK.[23]

In 2021, Landray was appointed to the Pandemic Preparedness Partnership (PPP), an expert group chaired by Patrick Vallance to advise the G7 presidency held by the government of Prime Minister Boris Johnson.[24]
