STUDY DESIGNS

Innovative Study Approaches

Emerging Methods and Solutions

Integrate secondary data from non-identified databases (such as EMRs, Claims, Research cohorts) with primary data from physicians and patients to build a comprehensive patient record specific to your research.

External Comparator Studies

Provide context for single-arm trials using real world data, increase operational efficiencies and meet Regulator and Payer requirements with confidence.

Extension Studies

Meet additional research objectives by keeping patients and investigators engaged post-trial. Drive efficiencies and capture long-term patient outcomes to understand the long-term safety and effectiveness of your drug.

Pragmatic Trials

Generate Real World Evidence to evaluate the effectiveness of a randomized intervention in real-life conditions, helping you answer Regulator and Payer questions about your product.
