Premier Research is an organization that selects appropriately-experienced research professionals who are capable of managing even the most complex clinical research studies to a successful conclusion. Premier Research offers therapeutically focused teams of clinical experts with the depth of knowledge and experience necessary to effectively manage any situation that may arise throughout your clinical trial. Our teams are proactively managed by our project managers who provide oversight on all functions in a study, working to keep each project on target to meet each sponsor’s exacting needs. Our approach is firmly grounded in comprehensive Project Management and well-defined processes. Premier Research recognizes that comprehensive project management is the key to the success of any study.

Strong Site Relationships


To achieve enrollment targets within required timelines, Premier Research understands the importance of selecting the right investigative sites. Premier Research has developed and maintains an investigator network that encompasses all major therapeutic areas. Furthermore, the recruitment of investigators involves our well-defined process for site selection through the use of comprehensive study-specific questionnaires, feasibility assessments and expert evaluation of the potential sites to ensure a high probability of success for each study. 
 

Experienced, Well Trained Monitors


Our project teams work in close collaboration with our sponsors and stay in close contact with the investigator sites through regular communication and monitoring. We employ regionally-based, highly experienced CRAs who are fully conversant in English and their local language and understand how to support each investigator to maximize quality and performance. The Premier Research CRA team participates in a rigorous, comprehensive training program and works with the expectation that they will seamlessly integrate into the site study team. It is their goal to demonstrate to the sites that they are an extension of their team and can be relied upon for the full support necessary to effectively manage any study. Equally important is their familiarity with local ethics and regulatory requirements – knowledge which is invaluable in reducing approval process timelines.
 

Enhanced Communication through iTrack

We recognize the importance of detailed communication, from kick-off meetings to weekly teleconferences to tracking of each study to ensure that our sponsors are always fully up-to-date with their study progress. We provide enhanced communication with a robust, central repository providing real-time project management and reporting through our proprietary, validated, customizable iTrack CTMS system. iTrack includes robust tools that provide full functionality to support the day-to-day process of trial delivery. Its allows the project team to generate metrics reports that provide comprehensive study status information including investigator information and contracting details, essential documents, monitoring visits, report status, correspondence with the sites, protocol violations, and other pertinent study information.
