Dedicated Clinical Operations Centers

Dedicated Clinical Operations Centers are strategic in nature and involve the management by PRA of clinical research departments or specialized workforces that are dedicated to a specific customer. Dedicated Clinical Operations Centers enable sponsors to significantly reduce costs by consolidating some portion of their outsourced clinical work into a single, centralized clinical research center managed by PRA.

Because the employees are dedicated to the sponsor, they become thoroughly familiar with the sponsor's processes and procedures and retain knowledge from early-study phases as products move through development. And because they are full-time PRA employees, they benefit from access to PRA's global clinical development infrastructure including training and career development programs, business support services, information technology, integrated information systems, standardized processes and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and quality assurance programs.

PRA provides Dedicated Clinical Operations Centers for the following types of workforces:

  • Site Management and Clinical Monitoring
  • Data Management and Analysis

Dedicated Clinical Operations Centers are used by:

  • Large pharmaceutical companies to improve quality while reducing the overall cost of outsourcing
  • Virtual and emerging companies to rapidly establish clinical trials management capabilities
  • Companies that need to quickly and efficiently establish a capability in the U.S. or Europe to expand their clinical programs
