VST Research Consulting
Focused feasibility review
We have a diverse team of experts, ranging from local clinical research associates as well as key opinion leaders, who can conduct or review feasibility studies. Our aim is to conduct feasibility studies which are realistic and should have a success rate of over 80%. We focus on all areas of a clinical project rather than focusing only on patient population thereby significantly increasing the chances of success.
Clinical trial documents
Whether you need input at concept, synopsis or into final protocol we can provide it all. We have experts who can provide an ethical and practical approach of the study conduct to minimize protocol amendments and changes in other key study documents. We can also organize an informal feedback from regulatory authorities.
Stress testing of Clinical strategy
By using simulation models we can predict the chances of success. We can devise a fully personalized communication plan, based on the needs and wants of individual stakeholders. By critically reviewing the projects we can advise of saving costs. We have been able to save approximately 15% of total costs for our clients in the past.
Targeted Data review
Poor data quality is one of the major concerns both for sponsors as well as Regulatory authorities. We offer a comprehensive data cleansing service targeting both Efficacy as well as Safety. Our team has the capacity and experience to perform a 100% data review in limited time. We have successfully reviewed over 50 large phase III clinical trials data
Bridging the gap
Trend for outsourcing is increasing and numbers of FTEs per projects are decreasing. Rush to initiate projects is a leading cause for inadequate definition of vendor’s scope of work. We can act as a bridge between Sponsor and Vendor. Our teams have vast experience of working with Sponsors as well as CROs and hence will be able to spot any deficiencies in the scope and can facilitate ongoing vendor management services. We also critically analyse the business need before searching for vendor and perform a thorough due diligence process before vendor selection.
