Where Are You in Your Clinical Trial Process?
Our clients prefer Bioclinica over other potential clinical trial partners because our experts provide insight and planning that stems from our past experiences. We’ve been there, so we can help you plan correctly and avoid the mistakes we’ve seen before. While other vendors may seek to expand your project to meet their budgetary goals, we recommend only the steps that will serve YOUR trial’s needs.
Pre-Study / Study Startup
Meet your First Patient In (FPI) date
When you are planning your clinical trial, many tasks are on the critical path to meeting your first key milestone: the First Patient In (FPI) date. You want to be able to get sites ready to enroll subjects quickly, so you’ll need a partner with experience in identifying, qualifying, and training the best sites.
Partner with Bioclinica and stay on the critical path to FPI:
- Developing protocols. We provide critical protocol guidance to make sure the imaging protocol is clearly defined for regulatory authorities and investigational sites before your trial begins. Bioclinica has extensive experience and the right experts to assist you with Special Protocol Assessments (SPAs).
- Identifying the right investigational sites. We’ve supported more investigational sites than any medical imaging provider in the world and are well positioned to advise you on the best ones to choose for your clinical trial. We know the investigational sites with the appropriate equipment and expertise to move your trial forward. If you need trusted sites in specific countries, with the highest quality and enrollment for a given indication, chances are we have some to recommend.
- Qualifying investigational sites. We ensure that they have the proper equipment and systems in place well before your planned Site Initiation Visit (SIV). We put everything in place for a smooth SIV and pave the way for Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval.
- Training investigational sites. Bioclinica is your partner to train investigational sites on imaging protocol and image submission procedures. We develop a user-friendly and comprehensive site imaging manual aligned to your protocol requirements and we make sure personnel are ready to hit the ground running. Depending on the complexity of the imaging protocol, Bioclinica performs training via an easy-to-use web-based system, virtual meetings, or in-person site visits.
- Maintaining relationships with investigational sites. When site personnel are informed and trained, they won’t need to turn to you for day-to-day questions, freeing you up to focus on the big picture.
- Reviewing patient eligibility. Bioclinica offers comprehensive image reviews of subjects’ planned enrollment date.
- Planning inventory logistics. Bioclinica’s forecasting tools allow you to avoid costly waste while making sure your investigational sites will have supplies of Investigational Product and placebo.
- Standardizing imaging quality. Our experts advise your team on which types of images to include in your protocol, and which to avoid. We develop a cohesive site imaging manual and image review charter via our medical writers, with guidance from our highly experienced radiologists and medical affairs specialists. We define quality from the start and ensure image quality across all investigational sites, so every image is evaluable, and data from every subject counts.
