Changing paradigm of drug development

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

Part of Veristat’s mission is to assist clients in the development of their drugs and devices while using state of the art technologies.  Veristat is happy to assist the pharmaceutical and biotechnology development community as a CRO to implement/utilize efficiencies by using innovative technologies including EDC and IRT systems.  With a partnership approach adopting InForm and Phase Forward’s IRT solution, Veristat is on the cutting edge of clinical trial technologies.

This article below talks about the changing paradigm of drug development and how outsourcing to CROs can help reduce overall R&D costs . With Veristat we not only provide you these efficiencies to keep you on your budget, but also a partnership approach to conducting your clinical trial.

Welcome to Veristat’s Blog

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

I would like to personally welcome you to read, subscribe and enjoy our new blog.

In addition I would also like to say a few words about what Veristat really is, and what sets us apart from other contract research organizations (CROs).  Veristat was founded upon the idea that clinical research is fundamentally a scientific endeavor, and that the basic tenets of science must be followed to ethically and validly design, conduct, manage, analyze and report the results of clinical studies.  Unlike many CROs, we are a mid-sized company with a partnership approach presenting us with many advantages over our competitors.  One of these advantages is our unique ability to become integrated into our client internal teams, almost as though we were part of the client company.  This is something that many CROs cannot do, because of the bureaucracy that inevitably accompanies larger size.  Another advantage is our ability to rapidly adapt to company’s and client’s policies or even its structure, to address both internal organizational issues and changes in the rapidly evolving arena of clinical research.

We are also a dynamic company.  We pride ourselves on individual excellence within a team environment, where each individual in the company has the opportunity to fully explore and to utilize their own unique abilities.  We do not have artificial barriers to communication, we discuss ideas openly and without fear of arbitrary criticism.  We are a growing company, and it is my sincere hope and belief that we will all have a rewarding role to play in our mutual continued success. I, and Veristat, look forward to doing everything we can to make your clinical program a successful one.
