Case Studies of Success
Successful interventions by us through
rescue studies.
Clinical trial in oncology (solid tumour): 20% more patients in half the time envisaged

- Immediately recruited centres were able to beat target.

Clinical trial in oncology (haematology): trial brought to a successful end (within time and budget) after bankruptcy of previous CRO.
- Adding two countries in CEE resulted in higher than expected recruitment, beating timelines and accommodating a higher patient number due to higher than expected screening failures.

Clinical trial in renal transplant: trial brought to a successful end (within time and budget) after bankruptcy of previous CRO.
- US-made trial protocol was not adapted to European particulars. Amendment allowed typical concomitant treatment; additional incentives for investigators resulted in rocket-like recruitment rate.

Clinical trial in hypertension: remaining recruitment in half the time envisaged, after ‘clarifying’ issues of inclusion criteria.
- Imbalance through a few centres rapidly recruiting in one country (quickly reaching their prefixed upper limit) had to be counteracted by opening centres in one additional country.

Clinical trial in women's health: required timelines met after shifting into CEE
- Centres did not enrol according to their estimates after first feasibility. Newly recruited centres with different characteristics which were more appropriate for the study indication helped to meet the target.

Clinical trial in hypercholesterolemia: UK based sponsor’s first study in India. High screen failures in the study which was unexpected and slow subject recruitment.
- Pre-screening potential subjects
- Addition of 2 more sites
- Conducted camps
- Vigorous follow-up
- EA manpower dispatched to sites.
Sponsor’s remark on completion of target recruitment achievement:
“Personally, I greatly appreciate all the diligence and dedication from all of you to meet this important milestone in our company’s first ever clinical trial in India.” |
