Rapid Study Startup
(time-to-initiate)
When trials enter the pipeline, the
feasibility process, budget and contract negotiations, and
IRB / regulatory submissions all move forward concurrently
to speed the time from awareness to trial initiation.
Physician Leadership
and Excellence
The physician investigators at HCRC
are formally trained in the conduct of clinical trials.
Each investigator maintains strict compliance with a formal
code of ethics specifically written for human participant
research.
Quality Data and
Timely Reporting
HCRC employs a staff of professional,
highly trained Clinical Research Coordinators who are
supported by Research Assistants and Quality Assurance
Coordinators (the Research Team).
Enrollment Success
The available patient population for
each physician investigator is carefully reviewed and
profiled before pursuing clinical research studies.
Careful measures are taken to accept only those trials with
a high likelihood of meeting or exceeding the enrollment
goals of the sponsor.
WEEKLY IRB
MEETINGS - Patient Advocacy Council
(PAC) serves HCRC as its
primary, local IRB. The committee meets weekly and is
extremely responsive to all requests, ensuring quick
decisions on all new trial submissions.
SINGLE POINT OF
CONTACT - HCRC designates one person, the Business
Development Manager, to ensure that all pre-study processes
move forward efficiently. The Business Development
Manager serves as the primary, single point of contact from
trial awareness to initiation.
