SERVICES

Site Management

HYGEIA Research’s site management strategy is to maintain open, proactive communication with sites and to be their trusted partner. Our CRAs are available to sites; sites can contact them any time in case they need any support, advice or assistance while working on your clinical trial. In our experience, this approach minimizes the risks and is enabling efficient and effective clinical trial conduct.

Experienced CRAs

An important part of our “setting trial to success” philosophy, is our commitment to work only with experienced, appropriately trained CRAs who are capable of ensuring that quality data is consistently delivered. Knowing that behind every monitored page there is a life of a real patient, our CRAs approach each monitoring with a deep understanding of the disease, treatment and protocol requirements, always keeping in mind GCP standards.

 Our monitors are medical doctors or have similar backgrounds and come with significant experience in clinical research. They are dedicated to delivering the highest standard of excellence in their work.

At HYGEIA Research we understand that only commitment to work can have high quality results as an outcome; this is why our CRAs are organized in a way to have time to be fully devoted to your clinical trial, instead of working on multiple parallel projects at the expense of data quality.

Our CRAs are native speakers of the local languages and are as well fluent in English. Due to their professional background and experience, they have an on-going professional relationship with the leading local investigators and sites.

      CRA Capabilities include:

  • Essential document collection and maintenance
  • Ethics Committee and regulatory review board submissions
  • Site contracting, budget negotiation, and grant administration
  • Site qualification, initiation and closeout
  • Interim site monitoring
  • On site staff trainings (ICH-GCP, protocol and other clinical research topics)
  • Corrective Action Preventive Action (CAPA) implementation
  • Drug accountability
  • Data query resolution

Regulatory and Start-up Services

Taking new products successfully through clinical development, submission, and approval can be a difficult, expensive and lengthy process. This process is complex and varies from country to country. HYGEIA Research can help guide you throughout the full continuum of clinical development an provide you with all the local regulatory expertise to ensure the smoothest possible start to your study in the countries we are operating in.

Recognizing that time in clinical research is sacred, our specialized “start-up” teams are assigned to your study shortly after a project is awarded. They work with sites on performing pre-screening of patients whenever the indication allows and can conduct feasibility and site identification in parallel with essential document collection and submissions, thus ensuring the fastest start-up possible as well as having the First Patient In (FPI) shortly after the Site Initiation Visit (SIV).
