Strategic Decision-Making for Clinical Trial Success
The success of a clinical trial hinges on meticulous site selection. At ESTERN Medical CRO Life Sciences, we recognize the critical importance of this process and meticulously evaluate various factors when choosing sites for trials in specific geographic regions.
Collaborative Approach:
Working closely with our Biotech, Pharmaceutical, and Medical Device sponsors, we prioritize understanding their preferences for site selection. We recognize that evaluating disease prevalence, the location of patient populations, and the overall target pathologies are key determinants in identifying the most suitable clinical sites.
Thorough Assessment Criteria:
Our approach includes a comprehensive evaluation of a clinical site’s present experience and performance with ESTERN Medical. Before making recommendations, we consider factors such as previous study compliance, enrollment track record, collaborative working relationships, and other standard qualification criteria specific to the study.
Collaborative Site Selection:
The ultimate selection of sites is a collaborative effort between ESTERN Medical and our clients. We believe in fostering a partnership that leverages the expertise and preferences of both parties to ensure optimal site selection aligned with the study’s objectives.
