Late Stage Research Services

PPD has helped clients develop and implement late stage research, including patient registries and observational studies for more than 10 years. The range and volume of late stage research services we have managed around the world has enabled us to develop best practices and study implementation models that help ensure success for: 

• Clinical trials to support marketing claims, new indication or label changes 
• Confirmatory clinical trials 
• Patient registries and observational studies 
• Expanded-access programs 
• Large simple safety trials
• Investigator-initiated trials
• Rx to OTC switch 

Centralized Model 

From a centralized coordination center, we offer various aspects of site management via remote telephone monitoring and post-approval technologies, including initiation, training and monitoring. We provide sites with a 1-800 hotline, staffed by trained PPD professionals so any issues may be addressed immediately. Benefits of this model include:

• Efficient use of labor and resources 
• Shorter cycle times 
• Streamlined date collection
