Grading comment

Thank you to all of you who helped me with this. I had to go with 'Facilitative' on the basis of the website referred to in this answer which had Dutch law on clinical trials in both languages and used 'facilitative', though I might have chosen 'facilitating' in a non-legal text.

Overview for \"facilitative\"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The adjective \"facilitative\" has 1 sense in WordNet.

1. facilitative -- (freeing from difficulty or impediment; \"facilitative changes in the economic structure\")

Overview for \"facilitating\"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The verb \"facilitate\" has 3 senses in WordNet.

1. facilitate, ease, alleviate -- (make easier; \"you could facilitate the process by sharing your knowledge\")
2. help, facilitate -- (be of use; \"This will help to prevent accidents\")
3. facilitate -- (physiology: increase the likelihood of (a response); \"The stimulus facilitates a delayed impulse

The clues are there, but I would avoid saying \"falicitative institution\" if you wear false teeth or if you have a long tongue.

17 hrs confidence:

facilitator

Explanation:
Facilitator might be appropriate. Unfortunately, without more specific context (e.g. a key sentence that describes the role of the 'facilitaire instelling') it is difficult to tell.

-> "The clinical trials office will deal directly with pharmaceutical companies, answer their questions, address their concerns, and generally become their facilitator in instituting clinical trials at Jefferson."

If the term is defined in the document itself, you are essentially free (within reason!) to choose any term that is clear to the intended readership (presumably the lawyers and/or managers of the parties to the clinical trial agreement). Something along the lines of \'clinical trial centre\', \'clinical trial institute\', \'clinical trial facilitator\', etc., etc. should be fine.
